As a child know used to have a feeding tube, I want people to understand that this is NOT easy for the nurse or the patient. It’s painful, uncomfortable and can make you vomit sometimes. I always heard people saying “oh your overreacting it’s not that bad” so let me explain. This is a small, plastic tube going up your nose, down your throat and into your stomach.

I almost had to get this done. So thankful at the last second I didn’t need to get it done.

I got this done, my eyes was tearful and I felt like throwing up and it is extremely painful and you feel the tube in your throat. I can’t wait to get better and have this taken out when I get better.

My mother had this done three times I’d A&E at in hospital. Third time (by a Dr) was not done with two professionals present, twice the the bags were not secured to the bed or patient (by nurses). The bag fell onto the floor and pulled out the drain TWICE! (The second bag was tied on by a rubber glove, not allowing for gravity!). The third time, consultant Dr did it and didn’t know there were holes for securing the bag, also he didn’t offer water to aid swallowing the tube (I suggested as I’d witnessed twice before), I reminded him and showed him the securing holes in the bag. He asked if I had medical training, I said no, I’m just observant, as I’d watched it twice. The consultants thought I had sabotaged my mothers drains! Thank you Bath hospital for making me feel like shit !!!!😮

i applaud people that have to go through that so much. i couldn’t be that brave. it scares me.

Hats off and thumbs up to the patient

Excellent professionalism

very clearly shown and explained, thank you for your work!

Had NG several times with Crohn’s disease.I can put in them better than most . I use a bit of water with a straw and the tube goes down with no problem.

Very clear instructions.

Thank you very much, the video was very educational, keep up the good work

I had it done it saved my life after colostomy bag surgery it's very uncomfortable

I'm getting a ng tube in University college London hospital but I've had one before which was inserted at great ormond Street hospital

I just had this done last week. It was very uncomfortable and after it was placed my throat hurt and I was miserable the whole time it was in. 2x I have had this done and it is not pleasant one bit.

as a 13 year old who had to get my NG tube replaced 4 different times, if you have to get the tube in the nurses are gonna tell you it's just uncomfortable but it's not only that. It can hurt, make your eyes water and/or make you throw up. It's not nice.

I’m hopefully getting an ng tube on Monday due to lack of fluid and nutrition from constant vomiting everyday for 3 weeks. I’m nervous but it’s what I need while waiting for endoscope under general anaesthetic

Very Helpful

I was miserable when I got this I wouldn’t talk I would just whisper

Thank you so much

Thank you

Thanks

I work for the University of West London, Simulation Centre - can I use this for teaching purposes?

Always do an x ray to confirm placement

I went through this at Nakuru level 5 hospital due to intestinal obstruction it's really painfull

Gets easier the more you have them-i believe this wasnt her first time x

❤ excellent jop from beautiful nurses

Been through it told my Dr never again knock me out bore a hole in my side and feed me with a shovel!

I’m getting a feeding tube today wish me luck

This is more painful than endoscopy?

I’ve had 6 of these bastards. If it’s any comfort, each one was slightly less traumatic as I got used to them. But the first one was… ptsd material…. It is far more than a little uncomfortable and definitely painful.

Thank you for this. I wish to ask, as the first marking at 56cm has gone into the patient's body, won't the marker ink have any effect on the patient?

Nice 👍

Dear coleagues I´m Roberta Waterkemper Professor of Universidade Federal of Helath Sciences of Porto Alegre ( UFCSPA) Brazil. Lecture of Fundamentals of Nursing and I´d like to congrats you by simulation. It was really good, but there are some questions that I´d like to do. First: When you where inserting the tube, through the nose before arrive the throat, why the patient head wasn´t flexed? You had luck! The tube gonne directly to the stomac, but it could have gonne to mouth or lungs. 2o Yes you put your hand on patient hair and then ask to your coleague to help you to hold the tube to not contaminate the tube; 3o You kept the tube guide on and didn´t say in anytime when you would take it out; 4o I´ll wait forthe next....Thanks!

Does a nose tube cause shortness of breath?

As a person with an ED id like to know yalls povs. Im might fixing to have one done and im really nervous about it.

I didn't expect they would really do it to the "patient"

I had one of these a lot of times n I kept throwin up n it came out

Are the haircuts part of the uniform

*The NHS seriously won't allow a PGY-I or PGY-II to confirm placement of an NGT? I suppose I can agree with the PGY-I - at least for a few months, but a second year should have NGTs down pat. What is the reasoning behind this odd restriction?*

Bleh-the worst....only had to go through this once and it was horrible.

I don't know, but in the Czech Republic, when a tube is inserted through the nose, you have to drink to make sure it slides down the throat.

Are you a dietitian?❤

How many days after inserting this tube can be removed? Is it very painful?

I had this done after I had my youngest. I was not well at all. It was horrible. I hated it so much I asked them to take it out. I couldn't stand it in my throat.

I could never survive an NG tube!!!

When do you remove the guide wire please??

How often will the patient's probe location be checked? A. Once an hour B. Once on a shift C. Once in 24 hours D. According to the patient's needs

Im an anorexic and about to have this shit done... jesus fucking christ am i scared

👏

Why do they all lie and say the nasal and stomach feeding tubes don't hurt? I just got a stomach feeding tube last week and it was worse than my appendicitis, actually rhe worse pain I've ever been in my life!

I had Nasogastric Tube inserted into my stomach but I had pain in my throat I thought it was due to contact with the tube ! why that pain occurred?

❤

Why it is insert through nasal cavity...why don't use oral cavity?

I need this tube. Anyone can give me link from where i can purchase. I need 14 and 16 fr ( tube measurement)

That is torture

What is the purpose of this ?

You who are reading this! God loves U!
