A Trial of Bedside Placement of Nasal Jejunal Tube Confirmed by Ultrasound Compared to Placement by Endoscope in Patients With SAP (SAP)

May 27, 2015 updated by: Li Gang

Study to Compare the Placement Method of Nasal Jejunal Tube in Patients With Severe Acute Pancreatitis: Bedside Placement With Ultrasound Confirmation Versus Placement Endoscopically

The investigators assessed the utility of ultrasonography in confirming the position of nasal jejunal tube after bedside placement when compared with endoscopic placement in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Primary endpoint:

Success rate.

Secondary Endpoint:

Adverse effects, Change of intra-abdominal pressure (1h before, 1h after and 3 days after placement), Tolerance of enteral nutrition, Time to approach the target calories.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

We set this randomised trial to assess the safety and utility of ultrasonography in confirming the position of nasal jejunal tube after bedside placement when compared with endoscopic placement in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Primary endpoint:

Success rate.

Secondary Endpoint:

Adverse effects, Change of intra-abdominal pressure (1h before, 1h after and 3 days after placement), Tolerance of enteral nutrition, Time to approach the target calories.
