Implication

Cross-sectional analysis evaluated food safety and contamination risk in households handling home enteral nutrition, indicating areas for improvement.

Key Points

  • Contamination risk classification evaluated food safety in households using home enteral nutrition, indicating different risk levels.
  • Inter-rater reliability analysis showed substantial agreement in evaluations, with 88% achieving a reliability score of ≥0.61.
  • Households with commercial enteral formulas had a higher compliance percentage compared to food-based formulations, suggesting safer handling.
  • Despite the need for improvements, evaluated households were categorized as low contamination risk when handling enteral formulations.
