Ultrasound-guided post-pyloric feeding tube insertion in peri-operative cardiac infants

Ultrasound-guided post-pyloric feeding tube insertion in peri-operative cardiac infants

Delivery of enteral nutrition in critical infants post-paediatric cardiac surgery is sometimes hampered, necessitating direct feeding into the small intestine. This study is highlighting the role of ultrasound-guided post-pyloric feeding tube insertion performed by the paediatric cardiac ICU intensi...
