  • @Soriyou3
    Very good video. I am currently on a GI rotation for my elective as a MS3 and this was a good overview!
  • Had a feeding tube placed through my nose when I had neck dissection surgery 3 years ago. It was placed as a safeguard in case I had swallowing problems, but never actually used. Miserable time with that damn thing, couldn't eat or drink without constantly gagging, and I couldn't get any sleep, it was so uncomfortable. As soon as they pulled it out I was fine, and enjoyed my final meal in the hospital before I was discharged.
  • @nouf5473
    Can you add cases to exam our selves and how to chose / calculate the formula Thank you ❤
  • Most people start with NJ or NG even if it’s estimated to last more than 2 months though. And for several months
  • Thank you for this, I found it really helpful. I suffer from Gastroparesis, which has got a lot worse just lately & I wonder if I’ll eventually end up with a feeding tube. If I did I’d be ok about it. Just curious, do they ever give a j tube straight away or do they usually start with a nasal one for Gastroparesis?
