oro gastric tube
According to clinical need, an orogastric tube will be inserted at birth using the group method in VLBW infants in whom an umbilical catheter has been placed. An X-ray chest will be performed according to routine clinical practice to assess the position of the umbilical catheter. On the same X-ray the position of the gastric tube will be assessed by a radiologist blinded to the method used for orogastric tube placement.
