&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;==Procedure Guidelines==&lt;br /&gt;
===9.23 NASOGASTRIC/OROGASTRIC TUBE===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Contact Medical Control for Physician&amp;#039;s Orders&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====INDICATIONS:====&lt;br /&gt;
* Gastric decompression&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====CONTRAINDICATIONS:====&lt;br /&gt;
* Absolute – Known or suspected esophageal varices&lt;br /&gt;
* Relative – Ingestion of caustic poison&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====EQUIPMENT:====&lt;br /&gt;
* 14, 16 or 18 Fr. Levin tube, (for adults).&lt;br /&gt;
* 35 cc syringe.&lt;br /&gt;
* Water soluble lubrication gel.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tape.&lt;br /&gt;
* H2O.&lt;br /&gt;
* Saline.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====PRECAUTIONS:====&lt;br /&gt;
* It will be difficult and painful to pass tube on a patient with a deviated septum or nasal obstructions.&lt;br /&gt;
* In conscious patients, gag reflex will be elicited. If patient gags, pause insertion allowing patient to take breaths or drink a few sips of water.&lt;br /&gt;
* Epistaxis is a common complication.&lt;br /&gt;
* If tube curls up inside pharynx, withdraw it and re-insert.&lt;br /&gt;
* It is possible to inadvertently intubate trachea with NGT.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====PROCEDURE:====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;CONTACT MEDICAL CONTROL FOR PHYSICIAN&amp;#039;S ORDERS.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Mark distance tube should be inserted by measuring from nose to ear lobe to below xyphoid process.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lubricate distal 6 - 8&amp;quot; of NGT.&lt;br /&gt;
* Examine nose for septal deviation. Use right nares if both nostrils are the same size.&lt;br /&gt;
* Place patient in semi-fowler&amp;#039;s position, if condition permits and slightly flex head.&lt;br /&gt;
* Insert tube in nostril and gently pass tube into nose or thru King Tube.&lt;br /&gt;
* Encourage patient to swallow as tube is advanced to pre-determined depth.&lt;br /&gt;
* Confirm tube placement by aspirating gastric contents and by auscultating epigastrium while injecting 20 -30 cc air through tube.&lt;br /&gt;
* Aspirate stomach contents and irrigate concomitantly, as ordered.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tape tube in place and maintain suction if ordered.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
