Electromagnetic-guided placement of nasoenteral feeding tubes by nurses is an alternative to endoscopic placement by gastroenterologists. During placement, the electromagnetic signal that is emitted by the tip of the guidewire enables visualisation of the position of the tube on a portable monitor. The procedure can be performed by a trained endoscopy nurse at the bedside of the patient. This could have logistic advantages, as the patient transport is not necessary and confirmation of the position of the tube by an abdominal X-ray is not required. Other possible advantages of the new technique are no preprocedural fasting and no need for sedation. If the tube coils in the stomach, it can be repositioned without the need for a repeat procedure. A randomised multicentre trial found electromagnetic nasoenteral placement of feeding tubes to be non-inferior on comparison with endoscopic placement by gastroenterologists, and it can be considered as the preferred technique.
