Summary

A live-video system (NCKU-NG system) was developed to assist in the placement of an enteral feeding tube. This system consists of a camera and light source that can be inserted into the commercial NG tube to view live video during feeding tube placement. Manual air insufflation can be used to aid feeding tube placement and improve visualization of anatomic landmarks. After the procedure, an abdominal X-ray is done to confirm the position of the feeding tube.
