How often to you have to place NG/dobhoff tubes with fluoroscopy for nurses?

At least a few times a week we have requests to place feeding tubes on patients either using fluoro in the department, or by dragging a c-arm into an ICU room with an RA and placing one. I’ve talked to other tech friends of mine who work at different facilities and they all seem confused as to why nurses need our help putting in feeding tubes, and that they’ve never had to do that where they work. I’m kind of curious now if it’s a common occurrence in other places or if our nurses are just spoiled.

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
