The present study was carried out to compare NGT insertion by SORT maneuver with neck flexion lateral pressure (NFLP) in critically ill patients admitted to ICU. Another technique Table 2 Comparing the outcomes of interest between the study groups NFLP: neck flexion lateral pressure; SORT: sniffing position, NGT orientation, contralateral rotation, and twisting movement Ease of insertion: I: successful insertion in less than 50 s and in first attempt II: successful insertion in 1st attempt with more than 50 s, or in 2nd attempts with less than 100 s III: successful insertion in 2nd attempts with more than 100 s, or in 3 attempts to overcome the difficulties of blind NGT insertion is considering patients' anatomical factors. ./cache/cord-026659-mhe6q1ce.txt ./txt/cord-026659-mhe6q1ce.txt
