Does Transesophageal Echocardiography Along With an Orogastric Tube Improve the Image Quality Intraoperatively?

Henry Ford Health System·interventional·Posted Mar 5, 2018·Updated Sep 23, 2024

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Suction orogastric tube which is attached to TEE probe for TEE Image Quality. Completed, enrolled 47 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Image quality of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) tends to get worse during long hours of operations. An orogastric tube (OGT) is often inserted in the beginning of the case, and left there for intermittent suction as needed, or removed before TEE exam to prevent echoic artifacts. However, if left there, the effect of suction might be limited due to unreliable tip position of the OG tube. If removed, stomach will be distended again. We devised the OG tube attached TEE for practical suction and assessed its effect on image quality intraoperatively.
