Vital® HN
Specialized nutrition with partially hydrolyzed protein
Preparation
Instructions for Use
• Store unopened product in a cool, dry place.
• Prepare only the amount intended for a single day's feeding.
• for each 300-mL serving, pour 255 mL (8.6 fl oz) of room-temperature water into a clean container.
• While stirring, slowly empty the contents of one packet of Vital HN into the container. Continue to mix for 30 seconds or until the powder
dissolves.
• Refrigerate after preparation if not used immediately.
• Discard unused solution after 24 hours.
Oral Feeding:
• Serving Vital HN chilled enhances its flavor and increases palatability.
• It may be used as a sole source of nutrition or as a supplement to the prescribed diet.
Tube Feeding:
• Follow physician's instructions.
• Vital HN can be used with the specially designed Abbott Enteral Delivery System.
• Administer at room temperature.
• For gravity feeding, use an 8 Fr or larger tube. A 5 Fr tube may be used for pump feeding.
• Refrigeration increases the viscosity of Vital HN. When Vital HN has been refrigerated, an 8 Fr tube should be used for pump feeding and
a 10 Fr for gravity feeding.
• Adjust flow rate and volume to meet patient's nutritional needs and tolerance.
• Additional fluid requirments should be met by giving water with or between feedings or when flushing the tube.
• Avoid contamination during preparation and use.
