The nurse is preparing to insert the Nasogastric Tube (NG) into a client. So the nurse asks the client to swallow as the tube is being inserted.

The nurse should also verify if the Nasogastric Tube (NG) tube placed is in the stomach by placing a small number of stomach contents or by X-ray study is the best way to verify placement.

Along with that, the nurse should wear gloves must always be worn while inserting an NG because close contact with the patient’s body fluids increases with inexperienced patients. If the risk of vomiting is high, then face, and eye protection may also be considered.
