    Area of Science:

    • Medical Devices
    • Gastroenterology
    • Interventional Radiology

    Background:

    • The Dobbhoff tube is a flexible enteral feeding device.
    • Placement into the duodenum can be challenging due to tube flexibility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a technique for overcoming Dobbhoff tube flexibility.
    • To facilitate duodenal placement of the Dobbhoff tube under fluoroscopic guidance.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized an angiographic guide wire.
    • Manipulated the Dobbhoff tube under fluoroscopic visualization.
    • Guided the tube into the duodenum.

    Main Results:

    • The flexibility of the Dobbhoff tube was successfully overcome.
