Brief Summary
A live-video system (NCKU-NG system) was developed to assist in the placement of an enteral feeding tube. This system consists of a camera and light source that can be inserted into the commercial NG tube to view live video during feeding tube placement. Manual air insufflation can be used to aid feeding tube placement and improve visualization of anatomic landmarks. After the procedure, an abdominal X-ray is done to confirm the position of the feeding tube.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The successful rate (percent) of gastric placement of feeding tubes
The successful rate (percent) of gastric placement of feeding tubes using the video-assistance system (NCKU-NG system), was assessed by X-ray.
up to 24 hours after chest X-ray
Secondary Outcomes (1)
opearator evaluation (Liker scale)
immediately after procedure
Other Outcomes (2)
Procedure time needed (minutes)
Immediately after procedure
number of patients with visualization of the trachea (n, %)
immediately after procedure.
Study Arms (1)
video assisted NG placement
EXPERIMENTALThis is a single-arm study. A live-video system (NCKU-NG system) was developed to assist in the placement of enteral feeding tubes.

Eligibility Criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Patients can't receive an X-ray after the procedure to confirm tube position (e.g. pregnancy)
- Patients with hemodynamic instability (defined as mean arterial pressure \<65 mmHg)
- Patients with a history of basal skull fracture.
