[Application of gastric tube interposition by touching laryngeal prominence in postoperative oral cancer patients].

OBJECTIVE: This study explores the application of gastric tube interposition by touching laryngeal prominence in postoperative oral cancer patients.

METHODS: This trial includes 66 patients treated in the West China Hospital of Stomatology from August 2014 to December 2014. These patients were randomly divided into two groups: the test group included 33 patients who underwent gastric tube interposition by touching laryngeal prominence; the 33 other patients, who served as control group, underwent regular gastric tube interposition. The two groups were compared in terms of the occurrence rate of bucking, success rate of one-time gastric tube placement, and interposition time.

RESULTS: Compared with those in the control group, the occurrence rate of bucking and the interposition time in the test group decreased while the success rate of one-time gastric tube placement increased (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONS: Gastric tube interposition by touching laryngeal prominence can improve the success rate of one-time gastric tube interposition; moreover, it can reduce the average interposition time and the pain experienced by patients.
