Summary

Feeding by tube is commonly used for inpatients and ambulatory patients. For this purpose nasogastric (NG) intubation is the traditional approach. The aim of this study was to develop the orogastric (OG) intubation with dental fixation and compare OG versus NG intubation in healthy volunteers.

Interventions

DEVICE

Orogastric intubation

Patient was placed in Fowler position (45º) and intraoral infiltrative anesthesia was carried out with Lidocaine 2% (without vasoconstrictor) at gingival papilla in the vestibular-palatine direction. A polyurethane enteral tube (Medicone®, Cachoeirinha - Brazil) was inserted through the mouth and passed into de stomach, followed by fixation of the tube tip to a superior molar or premolar, in its palatine surface. For dental amarry it waas used a suture wire in stainless steel size 1.0

DEVICE

Nasogastric intubation

After nostril anesthesia with xylocaine gel, a polyurethane enteral tube was inserted through the nose and its tip was positioned in the gastric lumen, according to the nose-ear-xiphoid method. The tube was attached to the face using antiallergic adhesive tape.
