With what we use these for I think a protocol for radiographic confirmation is a necessary evil. I have seen many times... Ng and og tubes end up in the trachea.
I don't think you are using these for anything anyone else isn't. If the tube is winding up in the trachea, it is time the providers paid more attention to what they are doing.
The only reasons that I can think of to use xray for these is to adequetely withdraw the tube if it winds up in the duodenum or if there is perforation/herniation of the abdominal lumen.
Are the people placing these tubes auscultating that the tube is in place or are they just cramming it down somebody and waiting for the xray?
