In this episode, we explore nasogastric intubation and enteral feeding, essential procedures for managing gastrointestinal dysfunction and providing nutritional support. We discuss the various types of NG tubes, indications for their use, and the nursing considerations throughout the procedure, including pre-procedure preparations, intraprocedure steps, and postprocedure care. Key complications, such as aspiration and occlusion, and how to handle them are also covered. Tune in for a comprehensive overview of these critical interventions in nursing care.
