- W2051205338 abstract "Introduction:The objective of the study was to determine any clinical or patient perceived benefit to using a wide bore nasogastric (NG) tube following a head and neck oncological resection. (Ethical approval received). Fine bore tubes get blocked following use and sometimes require removal and replacing. Wide bore tubes have the advantage of minimal blockage they can be more uncomfortable. Variation exists between head and neck surgeons as to which NG is used. Materials/Methods: Patients assigned randomly to those having a wide bore NG tube or a fine bore tube. There are two treatment groups. Collection of information required the use of three forms. The first form was completed by surgeon/anaesthetist placing NG tube, the second by nursing staff on the ward and the third by patients on removal of the NG tube. Each form has a study reference number to allow the information to be collated. 32 patients were included in the study. 17 had a wide bore tube, 15 had narrow bore. Results/Statistics: Statistical analysis is ongoing, however the trend reveals that wide bore tubes never blocked and never needed to be replaced for this reason. Patients however found them more uncomfortable. Narrow bore tubes frequently blocked with increased time demands on nurses/team to unblock/replace, with increased radiographical exposure. Conclusion/relevance:Given the increased risk of blocking of narrow bore NG tubes it is our view that where tolerated a wide bore NG tube should be used for feeding purposes in the post operative period." @default.
