The placement of nasogastric (NG) tubes is an extremely common intervention in general surgical wards and intensive care units. We report a case series of two patients who developed life threatening complications from the insertion of nasogastric tubes. Case 1 was a 71 year old man admitted to the Intensive Care Unit with pancreatitis who had three isolated complications from NG tube insertion....
The practice of administering drugs via enteral feeding tubes has become complex. The range of enteral feeding tubes and medicines has increased dramatically in recent years and this has led to a gap between clinical practice and best practice.
BACKGROUND Early enteral nutrition in dogs and cats can have significant benefit in the therapeutic management of critical illness. Blind placement of nasogastric or nasoesophageal feeding tubes to accomplish this goal has become standard practice. However, complications from tube misdirection into the tracheobronchial tree can lead to significant patient morbidity and mortality. Safe and consi...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether routine oral nutritional supplementation of a normal hospital diet improves outcome after stroke (Trial 1); whether early tube feeding improves the outcomes of dysphagic stroke patients (Trial 2); and if tube feeding via a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) results in better outcomes than that via a nasogastric tube (NG) (Trial 3). DESIGN The Feed Or Ord...
A cost-utility analysis was undertaken of enteral tube feeding (ETF) in patients with cerebrovascular accident (CVA). Mortality during ETF was established in nursing homes (n7007) or at home (n2888). Quality of life was measured (EuroQol) on a sub-sample (n25). Quality adjusted life years (QALYs) over 3 years and the cost/QALY were calculated. The cost/QALY (1 pound=1.482 euros; 30/06/05) for p...
BACKGROUND Adequate nutritional support for patients undergoing major surgery significantly affects postoperative recovery. Data on enteral feeding after liver transplantation (LT) are scarce. The aim of this work was to determine the efficacy and complications of feeding tubes inserted with the use of fluoroscopic assistance, endoscopic assistance, or transperitoneal jejunostomy in patients wh...
