This study aims to determine the occurrence of adverse events related to the use of enteral nutrition in patients hospitalized at the University Hospital of Santa Maria (HUSM), based on the quality indicators. This is an exploratory study, longitudinal, descriptive study with a quantitative approach. Follow-up of 46 adult patients of both sexes aged was conducted from 18 years in the use of enteral nutritional therapy in the Intensive Care Unit and Adult Medical Clinic II, in the period January-May 2012. To collect the a semistructured data form with information about the identification data, sociodemographic and data quality indicators (inadvertent output, tube obstruction and received diet volume) was used. Among the patients treated there was a predominance of males (71.7%), aged between 41 and 80 years (69.6%), skin color / Caucasians (93.6%), single (51.1 %) with incomplete 1st grade (53.2%) and from Santa Maria (53.2%). The diagnoses had a higher frequency were related to neurological disorders (N = 18), respiratory (N = 12) and neoplastic (N = 12). The average number of days in which patients used the probe to enteral feeding was 18.5 days (SD = 8.6), minimum of three and maximum of 30 days. Among the reasons that led to the suspension of the diet are: pause for body care (N = 2, 2.4%), exams and procedures (N = 46, 54.8%), for nausea and vomiting (N = 29 , 34.5%) and delay in installation of new bottle for not available in the unit (N = 7, 8.3%). In the study period 39 inadvertent exits the probe and tube obstruction occurred, showing incidence rates of 4.6% and 2.1%, respectively. On average, patients stopped receiving 176.4 ml (± 117.8), with a median of 81.4 ml. 72 drugs administered by tube feeding of patients who used NE were also identified. We conclude that the use of quality indicators in nursing constitutes a useful tool to assess the quality of care.
