Sponsor's own description
Abstract Background: A number of patients referring to the emergency departments (EDs) due to airway obstruction or decreased level of consciousness require the establishment of a definite airway using intubation. On the other hand, performing Nasogastric tube (NGT) insertion is very challenging in anesthetized and intubated patients. And, a conclusive method has not yet been presented in this regard. Hence, the current study aimed at comparing Digital Intubation (two-finger) and Video Laryngoscopy methods during NGT insertion. Materials and Methods: The present clinical trial was performed on 76 intubated patients that were randomly divided into two groups. Groups A and B underwent Video Laryngoscopy and Digital Intubation (two-finger) methods, respectively. Then, the success rate, the number of attempts to insert NGT, duration of insertion, hemodynamic parameters, and patients' satisfaction level were recorded and examined in this study.
