摘要：
Provided is an orogastric tube guide that can be used to accurately and quickly place an into the esophagus of a subject. In some embodiments, the orogastric tube guide is placed into the mouth of the subject after the subject has been intubated with an endotracheal tube. When placed in the midline of the subject's mouth, the disclosed orogastric tube guide aims placement of an orogastric tube towards the subject's esophagus. The orogastric tube guide also optionally contains a bite block to prevent a patient's teeth from clamping down on an endotracheal tube. The orogastric tube guide also optionally contains ports that can be attached to air tubing for providing supplemental oxygen after endotracheal extubation, thereby avoiding the need for nasal cannula.
