Nasointestinal intubation with tiger tubes: a case series indicates risk of mucosal damage
Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, 2006AbstractIn five intubations using the tiger tube (Cook) two were successfully placed into the small intestine. Two of the three intubation failures were due to early death due to the underlying condition. Nasointestinal placement permitted successful enteral feeding. Unfortunately, both nasointestinal placements were associated with mucosal damage that

Background: Gastral nutrition in critically ill surgical patients can be difficult because of gastric paresis and a large number of patients fail to reach required caloric intake. Endoscopic or radiologic placement of nasointestinal tube is frequently performed with delay and may raise the risks for critical ill patients.

Anastomotic leakage is a serious complication after gastric cancer surgery. Despite the superiority of enteral nutrition (EN), total parenteral nutrition (PN) remains the standard therapy for anastomotic leakage. After introduction of EN via a nasointestinal tube for patients with anastomotic leakage in our institution in 2006, standard nutritional ...

Intestinal Placement of pH‐Sensing Nasointestinal Feeding Tubes
Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 1994Intestinal access for enteral nutrition can be achieved by spontaneous intestinal nasogastric tube passage or by endoscopic, fluoroscopic, or surgical placement methods. Each of these methods has limitations that may compromise clinical utility. pH‐sensing nasointestinal feeding tubes allow active placement with minimal equipment and expertise; however,

Nasointestinal tube for decompression or enteroclysis: Experience with 150 patients
Abdominal Imaging, 1994The initial clinical experience with the use of a triple lumen long tube designed for gastrointestinal decompression and enteroclysis is reported in 150 patients. Based on clinical observations, this tube is effective in suctioning retained gastric and intestinal fluid but requires frequent irrigation of the sump port for effective decompression of ...

Gastroparesis often precludes gastric enteral nutrition (EN) in critically ill patients. Our aim was to determine the feasibility of bedside microendoscopic placement of nasointestinal feeding tubes to facilitate enteral nutrition in critically ill patients with poor gastric emptying.

Measures to Test Placement Of Nasogastric and Nasointestinal Feeding Tubes
Nursing Research, 1988A literature review regarding commonly recommended bedside measures to test nasogastric and nasointestinal feeding tube placement is presented in this article. Among the methods discussed are: aspiration of recognizable gastrointestinal contents, auscultation of insufflated air, measurement of pH of gastrointestinal secretions, and observing for ...

Aim: The aim of this study was to discuss the common complications induced by long nasointestinal tubes (LTs) and prophylactic therapeutic measures. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed, consisting of 88 patients treated with LT for acute bowel obstruction (including 61 patients who underwent plication of the small intestine by LT).
