Clinical trials: Feeding Tube
Gastric Feeding Tube, Blood Gas Monitoring, Transcutaneous
End-Tidal CO2 (etCO2) and pH in the Correct Naso-gastric Tube Placement
The laying of a naso-gastric tube is an extremely common event in intensive medicine; although standard naso-gastric tube laying is performed at the patient's bedside, this procedure is not without risk.
