Investigation Time Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomized, Controlled Comparison of Two Endoscopically Placed Nasojejunal Probes in Critically Ill Patients in Terms of Application Time and Technical Success
A direct application of jejunal tube feeding is necessary especially in patients with
gastroparesis due of existing diabetes mellitus, postoperative or severe underlying disease.
Since the jejunal tube feedings, the secretion of gastric juice can be increased, the use of
probes that allow both: jejunal nutrition, as well as a gastric outflow of secretions are
beneficial.
While in a randomized trial of Schwab et al. it could be shown that the use of
Freka-Trilumina® compared to Dobbhoff probe by so-called drag technique is significantly
faster there are currently no comparative data to use the Easy-In® probe subsequently
developed , which is directly introduced through the working channel of the endoscope, and
thus shortening the procedure time.
The use of probes nasojejunal has increasingly become important especially in critically ill
patients because of the beneficial effect in patients e.g. with necrotizing pancreatitis,
according trauma or major surgical procedures.

In the presented study should be investigated to what extent the use of imported directly
via the working channel Easy-Inn® probe, application time and thus the investigation period
may be shortened compared to the usual nasojenunal probes.
