Combined application of nasogastric tubes and nasointestinal tubes in neurosurgical intensive care patients with stress ulceration: a novel solution to treatment and early enteral nutrition [PDF]

open access: yesSpringerPlus, 2016
Stress ulcers occur frequently in neurosurgical intensive care patients and can pose serious risks. We summarized the clinical experience of the combined application of nasointestinal tubes for early restoration of enteral nutrition and of nasogastric (NG) tubes for stress ulceration treatment in patients hospitalized in a neurosurgical intensive care ...

Safe management of anastomotic leakage after gastric cancer surgery with enteral nutrition via a nasointestinal tube

Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2012
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, 1994
Intestinal 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,

Microendoscopic Nasointestinal Feeding Tube Placement in Mechanically Ventilated Patients with Gastroparesis

Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 2003
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, 1988
A 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 ...

The use of bedside electromagnetically guided nasointestinal tube for jejunal feeding of critical ill surgical patients

Technology and Health Care, 2013
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.

Clinical analysis of common complications induced by long nasointestinal tubes: A retrospective cohort study

Translational Surgery, 2018
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).

Bedside Ultrasound-guided Nasointestinal Tube Placement in Critically Ill Patients in Intensive Care Unit.

Alternative therapies in health and medicine, 2023
To verify the efficacy and safety of bedside ultrasound-guided nasointestinal tube (NIT) placement techniques in critically ill patients in the ICU.100 Critically ill patients were selected and were randomly enrolled into a bedside ultrasound guidance (BUG) group (BUG guiding the NIT placement) and a traditional blind insertion (TBI) group, with 50 ...

Endoscopic guided intubation of long nasointestinal decompression tube.

Surgery, gynecology & obstetrics, 1985
Surgeons have long been faced with the problem of intubating long nasointestinal tubes through the pylorus of the stomach when intestinal obstructions are present. The procedure described herein provides a direct view of intubation, endoscopically, rather than a blind approach fluoroscopically.
