Feasibility of a low-cost magnet tracking device in confirming nasogastric tube placement at point of care, a clinical trial

Abstract An affordable and reliable way of confirming the placement of nasogastric tube (NGT) at point-of-care is an unmet need. Using a novel algorithm and few sensors, we developed a low-cost magnet tracking device and showed its potential to localize the NGT preclinically. Here, we embark on a fi...
