I'm a new subscribers and I study in caregiver I can say your a great teacher and nurse as well. Thank you for sharing your knowledge..

[@annegreenwood3624]

i too am in caregiving and your so good at explaining things a great nurse

[@chikambinakapatriciabenedi4636]

Really clear step by step descriptions. Thank you!

[@hannamariangeorge569]

This is so informative.. and NURSE THANK YOU SO MUCH for making it so simple and easy to understand.

[@thatnursingprof2661]

This NG tube example is assuming the patient is Alert and Oriented ×4 and cooperative. Sometimes we have to do this on confused, uncooperative or even unconscious patients. I suggest having help.

[@kembakirton3176]

How does it work in a case like this... when patient is unable to swallow or drink from straw.

[@thatnursingprof2661]

@@kembakirton3176 the procedure is still the same but you have another nurse hold the patient's head. We put NG tubes on babies in the NICU and they are not able to help us by swallowing.

Hey! It's me again. Now we are learning to put a nasogastric tube so thanks again :)

[@MaCherieMcAli]

That is awesome, I am planing to go nursing School and this is helping a lot to overcome some fears. Thank you! I feel that when I get there I will know what to do.

[@dani.tellii]

thank you for clearly showing the STEP BY STEP process. 👍🏻

[@kidistetukie8743]

I really like your demo

[@mlstrikesback888]

Thanks... it now easy to understand procedure after watching your video🙂

[@ahmedelmasry7477]

Another great video and excellent performance 😊. And as you said about chest x ray and ph paper test we can inject air into the tube and listen over the epigastrium with the stethoscope to ensure that the tube is in the right spot. I benefit so much from your videos. Keep going prof 👏👏👏

[@thatnursingprof2661]

Thank you

[@donmarcello6264]

Auscultation, injecting air and listening, is NOT best practice. Thanks. ASPEN has refuted its use for confirmation. Use pH or x-ray. Thanks!

[@autumnroberts3086]

@@donmarcello6264 IT is STILL widely used as it Does CONFIRM despite the use of pH paper which creates waste and is a UNEEDED expense . Old school stands the test of time BECAUSE IT WORKS

[@taichiperfect]

@@autumnroberts3086 i’m a travel nurse and worked in 4 different hospitals (different states as well). They all don’t practice listening or ph technique. It’s all about xray.

excellent

[@elizabethho5526]

Very helpful as a resource for teaching!!! Thank you. For NEX measurement you mention xyphoid process you mentioned mid sternum. I think you meant the distal part of the sternum? Also there is a modifed NEX, i.e. NEX +5 to 10cm, do you all use that?

[@eshine4473]

Thank You I am for sure passing my check off

Wao great 👍

[@lindseysturkie2205]

Pinning it to the gown is not a good idea. They slip and slide, if they have a remote Tele box it pulls the gown which will pull the tube. It makes them hesitant to turn their head. Someone like a tech or family member may try to change the gown and jerk the tube.

[@Sabrina-ln9ky]

Funny cause my nursing instructor says to pin it if there’s not tape available

[@AutisticCuriosity]

Thank you so much!

[@lakithamaratunga7423]

Thanks! ❤️

[@ems1632]

Danke schon pretty!

[@meattamassaquoi9847]

I also want to know the full procedure in performance the NG tube in writing and how to remove it.

[@Kh-xb6sj]

How to make sure with using the stethoscope like what must sound should be

[@JOPETHGARMA]

how about "ADMINISTERING A TUBE FEEDING"?

[@theRavensRed]

Hello there nice to meet you I just learned about your channel by coming and watching a video anyways do you have any videos about things that don't involve tubes with these things you probably do don't you?!🐿️

[@coralapena]

Thank you so much for this!! Helped a ton!!!! is there a specific amount of gastric content to aspirate??? I've been told 3mL by one teacher, one said 5 so is it just a range?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

There is no specific amount just enough to put on your pH strip. I usually say 5ml.

[@kinenikisii3149]

great demo

[@dagimsiltan7470]

This video is so awesome but i have to ask u sth.....why are u not talking about closing the NG tube while inserting and when u are checking its position u take the sample and leave it open is that safe?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

Yes this is not a sterile procedure.

[@maimahdi7373]

I have noticed that when you insert it a tube( a catheter or the NGT) you do it real fast, is that how it should go and isn’t that harsh for the patient? Or you just do it for a quick demo?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

I go fast to minimize the discomfort to the patient

[@317stitches2]

I had this done and it is not fun. I refused to be awake while the RN wanted to do this. She called down to the surgery department and told them i refused to let her do this while I was awake. The nurse told me that she realized how horrible the procedure was for patients until it was done to her. When they taped the tube to my nose for five days my left nostril has been bent towards the right making my nose looks crooked. That was thirty years ago and the end of my nose is crooked? The tube scratched my throat inside and it felt like a walnut was stuck in my throat. I Freaking! hated it and threatened to rip it out of me. No water, not even a drop for five days because of my surgery.

[@startrooper2345]

You should have to get one too and a catheter to see what it feels like

[@nabisenkesuzan2820]

Is it true that you can insert a nasogastric tube when the patient is in situp position

[@thatnursingprof2661]

Yes they should be sitting up

[@dr.rajankhadka3418]

What about unconscious patient in ICU setting...?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

Its the same except they can't help you by swallowing

[@chrisg4932]

if your on the other side do you use your non-dominant hand to insert or what.

[@thatnursingprof2661]

It doesn't matter but it will feel more comfortable to use your non dominant hand than cross over.

[@ponggaaa4854]

Question. If ng tubes require such X-rays and pH tests, how come people do it at home all the time. (I know it's for the convenience of both parties, but isn't is dangerous?)

[@blinkonce7930]

They don't require both, just either of them.

[@grantlaing1033]

Does the tube need to be sterile? If so, softening it in warm water before......?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

No this is not a sterile procedure

[@Yaowza1227]

What the? I’ve been a nurse almost 2 years and had no idea nurses can place NG tubes. In my experience as an RN in NYC only providers are allowed to place them. Does this vary state by state?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

Each states nurse practice act is different. In my state nurses are allowed.

[@Yaowza1227]

@@thatnursingprof2661 wow that’s gnarly. Wasn’t even taught to us in nursing school. Thanks for the response

[@TheKindHearty]

do u have to change to new ETT if the 1st one is failed?

[@thatnursingprof2661]

No because this isn't a sterile procedure.

[@sakthivelpalanisamy4501]

Say all methods to kno placement of ngt

What if he can't sip un able to swallow???????

[@ceazar1521]

You look so young. Haha yeah it is helpful btw.

[@happypills7978]

🤗😷

[@victoriarichard3468]

When can you remove the NG tube

[@thatnursingprof2661]

That depends on why the patient needed it in the first place. There will be a doctors order to discontinue it when it's time.

[@haelmacaraeg3911]

someone recommended to us to use ice if the tube is kinking

[@GirlsgenSONE9]

u r pretty
