Abstract

Performed by an experienced operator, CEAS is a simple, rapidly available, and effective bedside tool for safely placing PP feeding tubes for EN in patients with thrombocytopenia, even when showing an otherwise-caused coagulopathy in the ICU. Higher-grade bleeding complications were not observed despite their obvious correlation to thrombocytopenia. A prospective study is in preparation.
