Official title:
The Use of Ultrasound to Determine Correct Nasogastric Tube Placement in Children Admitted to the Pediatric ICU: a Pilot Study

Status Withdrawn

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if ultrasound (US), when used by the clinician, can determine the presence of nasogastric tube (NGT) in the stomach of patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
