Comparison of GlideScope ™ visualization and neck flexion with lateral neck pressure nasogastric tube insertion techniques in anesthetized patients: a randomized clinical study

ConclusionUsing GlideScope ™ visualization to facilitate NGT insertion was comparable to neck flexion with lateral neck pressure technique, in the degree of success rates of insertion. Although complications were not statistically significant between groups, neck flexion with lateral neck pressure technique was significantl y less time-consuming for both first and second attempts.Trial registrationRetrospectively registered: Thai Clinical Trial Registry(TCTR)20171229003.
