NASOGASTRIC TUBE INSERTION STEPS IN NGT INSERTION


Safety Consideration: 1. Perform hand hygiene and gather supplies
● perform hand hygiene ● Pad (Incopad)
● check room for additional precautions ● Nasogastric tube
● introduce yourself to the patient ● Water with straw
● confirm patient ID using two patient identifiers ● Tape
● explain process to patient ● pH indicator strip (used for checking placement)
● listen and attend to patient cues ● Water soluble jelly
● ensure patient’s privacy and dignity ● Bulb syringe (Asepto syringe)
● assess ABC’s/suction/oxygen/safety ● Clean gloves
● apply principles of asepsis and safety
● check vital signs
● complete necessary focused assessments
● should stay in place no more than 4 weeks

GASTROINTESTINAL INSERTION
- insertion of a flexible tube into stomach or beyond
the pylorus into the duodenum or jejunum
Purpose:
● Decompress the stomach and remove gas or fluid
● Lavage 2. Visually inspect condition of patient’s nasal and oral
● Diagnose GI disorders cavities
● Administer tube feeding/medications 3. Assess for the best nostril before you begin
● Compress a bleeding site ● Do this by occluding one side and asking the
● Aspirate GI contents for GI analysis patient to sniff. Ask the patient about previous
injuries or history of a deviated septum.

understanding of procedure.
6. Check doctor’s orders for the type of NG tube to be
placed and reason for placement.
7. Check doctor’s orders to determine whether the NG
tube is to be attached to suction or a drainage bag. A
suction bag is used for decompression, and a
drainage bag is used for lavage.
8. Position the patient sitting up to 45 to 90 degrees

NOTE: Medications should NOT be mixed with feeding formulas


(mixing or putting medications with feeding formulas is not
efficient because the patient might become easily full during
the feeding, and so, the medication might not be given in
complete dose; it might cause drug-to-drug interactions; and it
might result to clogging of the tube. Also, mixing medications
may disguise the side effects of one drug to the other making
it hard for us to determine which medication caused the
reaction.)

junction.
- Taking of blood pressure and blood specimens
from the extremity with the PICC is avoided.
● Surgically placed central catheters
- For long-term use and may remain in place for
many years.
- These catheters threaded (or tunneled) under the
skin (reducing the risk of ascending infection) to the
subclavian vein and advanced into the superior
vena cava.
- Example: Permacath
● Implanted vascular access ports
- Used for long-term IV therapy
- Instead of exiting from the skin, the end of the
catheter is attached to a small chamber that is
placed in a subcutaneous pocket, either on the
anterior chest wall or on the forearm.
