متن کاملGastroesophageal reflux and tracheobronchial contamination after cardiac surgery: should a nasogastric tube be routine?
Nasogastric (NG) tubes are routinely used in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This randomized study was designed to assess gastroesophageal reflux (GER) without a NG tube (control) compared with a NG tube managed either by gravity drainage (gravity) or continuous low-grade suction (suction). Antimony pH probes were placed in the lower esophagus and trachea after induction of anesthesia in 5...
