OBJECTIVE: To investigate maternal and fetal outcome in @entity7494 gravidarum comparing enteral tube feeding of the mothers with other fluid/nutrition regimens. DESIGN: Retrospective hospital-based cohort. SETTING: University hospital, Norway. SAMPLE: All 558 @entity1 treated for @entity7494 gravidarum 2002-2011; 273 received water/electrolytes intravenously, 177 received nutritional supplements by peripheral line, 107 received enteral feeding by gastroscopically positioned nasojejunal tube and 10 received total parenteral nutrition. METHODS: Different fluid/nutritional groups were compared by chi-squared or non-parametric tests. The influence (odds ratio) of nutritional regimens on having small-for-gestational-age @entity1 was evaluated by binary logistic regression. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Maternal @entity1017 during hospitalization and pregnancy, birthweight and gestational age at delivery. RESULTS: @entity1 receiving enteral nutrition had significantly greater weight loss on admission (median 5.0  kg) and at start of nutrition (5.5  kg) than the other treatment groups (4.0  kg) (p  <  0.001). Enteral nutrition was administered for up to 41  days (median 5  days) during hospitalization, leading to 0.8  kg @entity1017 (95% CI 0.5-1.0, p  =  0.005). The tube-fed @entity1 achieved similar @entity1017 during pregnancy and experienced similar incidence of @entity600 or small-for-gestational age compared with the other treatment groups. @entity1 with <7  kg total @entity1017 had increased risk of birthweight <2500  g and small-for-gestational-age @entity1 (odds ratio 3.68, 95% CI 1.89-7.18, p  <  0.001). The nutritional regimen used was not an independent risk factor. CONCLUSION: Compared with other fluid/nutrition regimens, enteral tube feeding for @entity1 affected by severe @entity7494 gravidarum is associated with adequate maternal @entity1017 and favorable pregnancy outcomes.
