Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  conventional  NGT placement will be carried out through selected nostril by putting the head in a neutral position. Insert NGT tip slowly into the patient’s nostril and advance it steadily in a downward direction, along the bottom of nasal passage, pointing downward in direction of the ear on the same side as the nostril. Continue to advance NGT until you reach the mark.  
Intervention  Neck flexion with lateral neck pressure  NGT will be inserted till 10 cm with flexed neck then lateral neck pressure will be applied on the same side of selected nostril and then NGT will be advanced further 
Intervention  Preinserted NPA (nasopharyngeal airway)  size of NPA will be selected according to nose-to-ear lobe distance (ranging from 6-9cm), NGT will be advanced through lubricated NPA which is inserted in the selected nostril after tracheal intubation in the same way as group C. After confirmation of correct placement of NGT, NPA will be withdrawn and by cutting longitudinally freed from NGT 
Intervention  Reverse Sellick s manoeuvre  NGT insertion will be done in same way as of conventional just with anterior lifting of cricoid cartilage. Successful NGT placement will be confirmed by auscultation over epigastrium. A stethoscope is placed over the epigastrium to listen for a whoosh sound as 10-30ml of air is insufflated through the NG

Brief Summary  

Nasogastric tube insertion (NGT) in anaesthetized patient is often difficult due to various reasons. Anatomical, patient being unconscious, coiling, kinking with that there are multiple complications related to NGT insertion leading to many cathostropic sequele. So, to avoid this complications and easy insertion many methods have been tried. This study compares four different methods of NGT insertion to increase success rate for correct placement of NGT with less complications. It compares conventional method, neck flexion with lateral pressure, reverse Sellick’s method and preinstalled nasopharyngeal airway for increasing success rate of insertion of NGT correctly.
