Vacuum sealing drainage combined with naso-intestinal and gastric decompression tubes for the treatment of esophagogastrostomy neck fistula.
J Cardiothorac Surg
June 2022
Department of Interventional Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, No. 1 Jianshe East Road, Zhengzhou City, 450052, Henan Province, China.
Objective: To evaluate the clinical results of the vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) combined with a naso-intestinal nutritional tube (NIT) and a gastric decompression tube (GDT) for the treatment of esophagogastrostomy neck fistula (ENF).
Methods: From January 2018 to October 2020, twenty patients (13 men and 7 women, ages 46-72) with ENF secondary to esophagogastrostomy were treated with VSD combined with NIT and GDT. Technical and clinical success rates, the incidence of early/late complications, the time of fistula closure (TFC) and therapy-related indicators were analyzed.
Naso-intestinal tube is more effective in treating postoperative ileus than naso-gastric tube in elderly colorectal cancer patients.
Int J Colorectal Dis
July 2017
Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery, Tian Jin Union Medical Center, 190, Jie Yuan Road, Hong Qiao District, Tian Jin, People's Republic of China.
Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the effect of naso-intestinal tube and naso-gastric tube in relieving postoperative ileus in elderly patients with colorectal cancer.
Methods: Patients (n = 46) with ileus symptom following radical surgery for treating colorectal cancer were placed with either naso-intestinal tube at duodenum or conventional naso-gastric tube. Then, their waist perimeter, intra abdominal pressure, maximum diameter in bowls, length of time to pass flatus or passage of bowel movement or to return to diet, length of hospital stay, daily drainage, serum levels of lactic acid, hemoglobin, and creatinine as well were compared.
[Diagnostic value of selective small bowel enteroclysis in imageology of intestinal obstruction: clinical analysis of 98 cases].
Beijing Da Xue Xue Bao Yi Xue Ban
October 2014
Department of Gastroenterology, Peking University Third Hospital, Beijing 100191, China.
Objective: To improve the diagnosticability of selective enteroclysis in the area of intestinal obstruction, by reviewing the cases of selective intestinal enteroclysis through a naso-intestinal decompression tube, and evaluating its diagnostic concordance level and the influence factors.
Methods: The selective enteroclysis was different from traditional enteroclysis; it utilized a naso-intestinal decompression long tube to perform local intestinal opacification. In the four years between Apr.

Department of Neurology, Antwerp University Hospital, Ziekenhuis Netwerk Antwerpen, Wilrijkstraat 10, 2650, Edegem, Antwerp, Belgium,
Data concerning efficacy, safety, and patient satisfaction of levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG, Duodopa, AbbVie, Wavre, Belgium) infusion in routine clinical practice were needed to maintain reimbursement of the drug in Belgium. Patients with advanced Parkinson's disease in 27 neurology centers across Belgium were included. Of 100 patients who underwent naso-intestinal (NI) evaluation with LCIG, 67 received permanent treatment with LCIG via percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy and jejunal tube (PEG/J).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTo meet the protein and amino acid requirements of individuals and of populations requires information not only about their requirements but also about the capacity of available foods to meet those requirements. Most of our current knowledge of the digestibility of food proteins and the methods to estimate it has been derived from work with animals. Because the microbiota of the large intestine alter the amino acid composition of the digesta, and because only trivial quantities of amino acids are absorbed intact from the large intestine, the current method of choice for assessing amino acid digestibility is ileal digestibility corrected for basal endogenous losses, that is, standardized ileal digestibility.
