Brief Summary:
The goal of this observational study is to investigate methodological if ultrasound is comparable to chest X-ray in verification of intensive care patients enteral feeding tube positioning
The main question to answer is Is ultrasound a comparable method to chest X-ray in verification of intensive care patients enteral feeding tube positioning
The main question to answer is Is ultrasound a comparable method to chest X-ray in verification of intensive care patients enteral feeding tube positioning
Detailed Description:
In Norway around 4000 patients are yearly in need of ventilator and many of them will need enteral nutrition through a feeding tube 40 of all intensive care patients have signs of malnutrition If ultrasound is a comparable method to chest X-ray in verification of intensive care patients enteral feeding tube positioning then enteral nutrition in many cases can be started several hours earlier than using chest X-ray verification The ultrasound examination will be performed in a research based in a 4-step approach In this project 20-30 intensive care patients prescribed by a medical physician to have an enteral feeding tube will be included in the project due to written informed consent by 1 Awake intensive care patient or by 2 Patients informal caregiver if the patient is not competent to consent
