The comparison of capnography and epigastric auscultation to assess the accuracy of nasogastric tube placement in intensive care unit patients

BMC Gastroenterology, 2020
Background Placement of nasogastric (NG) tubes is a common procedure for patients especially in intensive care units (ICUs). Thus, it is important to determine the correct placement of the tube to prevent misplacement in the airways. Accordingly, the aim
