Abstract

The optimal method of achieving fast, safe, and accurate postpyloric tube placement at the bedside remains controversial. This study investigated whether facilitating techniques of bedside placement would improve the rate of successful placement of postpyloric tubes when compared with the standard technique and whether strategies should be confined to adult or pediatric patients.
