What is the Purpose of a Nasogastric Tube?


A nasogastric tube is a flexible, thin tube inserted through the nose, down the throat, and into the stomach. Its primary purpose is to provide nutrition or medication to patients who cannot eat or swallow on their own, ensuring they receive essential nutrients for recovery. NG tubes are also used to remove stomach contents, such as excess gas or liquids, to relieve discomfort or prevent vomiting in patients with gastrointestinal conditions. In cases of poisoning or overdose, NG tubes can be used to wash out toxic substances from the stomach. This tube plays a crucial role in managing patients with temporary or chronic health conditions, supporting their recovery by maintaining hydration and nutrition when normal eating is not possible. Proper care and monitoring are essential to ensure the tube functions effectively and safely.
