Ultrasound for Evaluation of Percutaneous G-tube Position

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare using ultrasound imaging to look at the position of the gastrostomy tube (GT) against fluoroscopic imaging in pediatric patients who had a recent GT tube replacement. The main questions it aims to answer are: - If ultrasound is just as accurate as fluoroscopy to assess the GT position. - If ultrasound takes less time than fluoroscopy to assessing the GT position. Participants will be imaging using ultrasound to assess GT positioning before their standard of care fluoroscopic imaging.

Clinical Trial Description

This clinical trial will address the validity of using ultrasound to evaluate the position of the gastrostomy tube (GT) retention balloon against the clinical gold standard of fluoroscopic tube injection to assess for potential larger studies and the implementation in clinical practice. This study will address the ability to visualize the retention balloon within the gastric lumen, the ability to assess for leakage from the GT within the abdomen, and the relative length of each study to perform. ;
