What CPT would you use for the following procedure?

"G-tube was pulled out and no able to be reinserted after attempts by ER staff. After 1 attempt a temporary 16 French foley catheter was place in the G-tube area in satisfactory position."

I am not sure if I need to focus on the G-tube being replaced and that the foley is serving the same purpose (more limited of course) for the time being. Would you use 43760?

Any feedback would be very helpful!

Thank you
Kelly, COC
