Semicolons

suggestion

"After full insertion of the device, typically to an empiric depth of 50 cm, a chest radiograph should demonstrate the tube descent along the expected course of the oesophagus with the distal tip terminating below the level of the left hemidiaphragm ⁷. Partial inflation of the gastric balloon (typically performed with 50 mL of air) should subsequently demonstrate the appearance of a lucent, circular structure below the diaphragm and corresponding to the expected location of the gastric body; a supradiaphragmatic location or migration of this lucency is concerning for intrathoracic (oesophageal) malposition."

Line 76:509 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"When visualised in its long axis, the device will appear as paired, parallel hyperechoic lines. Visualisation of the gastro-oesophageal junction should demonstrate this tubular echogenic traversing it, extending to the gastric body. Dynamic visualisation while advancing the tube may cause agitation of gastric contents; air may be injected into the gastric aspiration port to enhance detection of this phenomenon."

Line 80:330 · Use semicolons judiciously.
