Godoy MC, Leitman BS, de Groot PM, Vlahos I, Naidich DP.; AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2012 Mar;198(3):563-71. Review.
OBJECTIVE: In this pictorial essay, we discuss and illustrate normal and aberrant positioning of nonvascular support and monitoring devices frequently used in critically ill patients, including endotracheal and tracheostomy tubes, chest tubes, and nasogastric and nasoenteric tubes, as well as their inherent complications.
CONCLUSION: The radiographic evaluation of the support and monitoring devices used in patients in the ICU is important because the potentially serious complications arising from their introduction and use are often not clinically apparent. Familiarity with normal and abnormal radiographic findings is critical for the detection of these complications.
