Official title:
Efficacy and Safety of a Modified Method for Blind Bedside Placement of Post-pyloric Feeding Tubeļ¼a Randomized Controlled Trial
To compare efficacy and safety of a new modified post-pyloric feeding tube bedside catheterization with Corpak 10-10-10 protocol and electromagnetic guided catheterization for treatment of patients with dysphagia and at high-risk of aspiration pneumonia. We conducted a single-center, single-blinded, and randomized controlled clinical trial. A total of 63 patients were treated with the non-gravity type CORFLO gastrointestinal feeding tube between 2017.1 and 2019.1 using different procedures: in the M group, patients underwent modified post-pyloric feeding tube bedside placement; in C group, patients underwent conventional Corpak protocol; in EM group, patients received standard electromagnetic guided tube placement.
