- W3192054551 abstract "A premature 34-week-old newborn weighing 1.8 kg was admitted to the Neonatal Unit following delivery for maternal preeclampsia. She was edematous at birth, and though her weight was on the 16.9th centile by the Fenton chart, her length was only 39 cm (2.1st centile). The newborn had mild respiratory distress syndrome and was placed on nasal continuous positive airway pressure for <24 h and subsequently on room air. Her risk for necrotizing enterocolitis was deemed low in the absence of additional risk factors. An 8 French orogastric tube (OGT) was inserted 18 cm deep on admission for enteral feeding. The chest radiograph revealed the OGT tip to be abutting the stomach wall along the greater curvature but its position was not adjusted (Fig. 1a). Her milk feedings were tolerated well. At 72 h of life, she developed acute abdominal distension with significant pneumoperitoneum on abdominal X-rays (Fig. 1b). Laparotomy revealed a 0.3-cm perforation over the greater curvature of the stomach (Fig. 1c). The perforation's edges were healthy and uniform and repaired primarily. The rest of the intestines were healthy. Postoperatively, the newborn recovered well and intraoperative cultures returned negative. As the size and location of the perforation approximated that of a feeding tube, iatrogenic perforation was suspected. Retrospectively, based on the newborn's birth weight and length, a smaller sized 6 French OGT was thought to be more appropriate. Similarly, the depth of insertion using surface measurements via the nose–ear–mid-umbilicus (NEMU) method for OGT insertion—the distance from the corner of the mouth to the right ear lobe (or tragus as per hospital guidelines) to the midpoint of the umbilicus—was only 16 cm. Open disclosure was conducted with the newborn's parents. Gastric perforation accounts for 7% of neonatal gastrointestinal perforations1Chen T.Y. Liu H.K. Yang M.C. Yang Y.N. Ko P.J.

Krasna I.H. 'Spontaneous' neonatal gastric perforation: is it really spontaneous?.J Pediatr Surg. 2000; 35: 1066-1069Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (66) Google Scholar More prominent gaps in the musculature layer at the greater curvature of the stomach in the premature infant are hypothesized to be areas of relative weakness. An OGT tip abutting this area, hence, may contribute to iatrogenic perforation and can be defined intraoperatively as puncture wounds or short lacerations. Acute abdominal distension is the most common clinical presentation of gastric perforation, mimicking symptoms of necrotizing enterocolitis. Early diagnosis and appropriate management of neonatal gastric perforation result in good clinical outcomes. Using an appropriately sized OGT and accurate measurement of insertion depth according to standard guidelines is important, which include the NEMU or age-related, height-based method.3Beckstrand J. Cirgin Ellett M.L. McDaniel A. Predicting internal distance to the stomach for positioning nasogastric and orogastric feeding tubes in children.J Adv Nurs. 2007; 59: 274-289Crossref PubMed Scopus (39) Google Scholar Weight-appropriate guidelines are present for OGT insertion depth; however, we recommend caution in a child whose weight is not proportionate to the length. The correct location of an OGT should be angled toward but not bending along or touching the greater curvature of the stomach, with the tube tip or side orifice in the body of the stomach. Confirmatory imaging of an OGT is not routine; however, any radiologically diagnosed malpositioned feeding tube must be immediately repositioned to avoid risk of adverse events. The procedure of feeding tube insertion, although commonplace in practice, must be done vigilantly. Dr Ng and Dr Sinnathamby conceptualized, gathered information and drafted the manuscript.
