Title: Comparison of two gastric tube insertion methods in patients undergoing computed tomographic virtual endoscopy
Abstract: Objective To compare the different effect of two gastric tube insertion methods in pa-dents undergoing computed tomographic virtual endoscopy. Methods 56 patients undergoing computed tomographic virtual endoscopy were randomly divided into group A and B according to gastric tube insertion methods, group A inserted gastric tube to descending duodenum by gastroscope, group B inserted by Jag precursor via nose. One- time success rate and the incidence rate of side effect were compared between the two groups. X2 test was adopted. Results One- time success rate of group A and B was 33.3%, 82.9% respectively, with obvious statistic difference. The incidence rate of side effect of group A was higher than that of group B. Conclusions Inserting gastric tube to descending duodenum by Jag precursor via nose is convenient, time- saving, causing less pain and resulting in higher success rate.
