Abstract:
Objective To investigate the status and influencing factors of the methods used by nurses verifying the nasogastric tube placement blinded inserted in adult, and to explore the best practice of nursing staff to verify the nasogastric tube placement. Methods We designed the questionnaire and conducted survey to the clinical nursing staff in accordance with the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses practice alert. Results Air bolus auscultation (70.53%,675/957) and aspirate appearance (68.97%,660/957) were the most used method during insertion procedure. There was insufficient in the cognition of X-ray as the gold standard and the use in clinical.The department, work years, specialist nursesand hospitallevel impact X-ray use(all P <0.05).Age, education,title,hospital level, specialist nurses and department impact the cognition of X-ray as the gold standard(all P <0.05). Conclusions Nurses still use the traditional methods to verify the nasogastric tube placement. There is a certain gap between clinical practice and AACN practice alert in themethods used to verify nasogastric tube placement.As the gold standard to verify gastric tube placement, the use and cognition of X-ray are impacted by many factors, including the department, specialist nurses, hospital level, et al. Therefore, hospital should establish a knowledge sharing platform, which will help to spread the advantages and disadvantages of various methods used in verifying the nasogastric tube placement, and then to strengthen the cognition with different people. Furthermore, based on potential influencing factors, it is necessary to further explore new bedside effective method of verifying the nasogastric tube placement and seek the best practice to validate the method of blind intubation of nasogastric tube.
