The 3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device is designed to deliver reliable securement to help keep nasal feeding tubes and other tubes delivering therapy via the nose in place. This NG tube securement device is an easy-to-use solution that helps support pressure injury prevention practices and minimizes the risk for medical adhesive-related skin injury (MARSI).
3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device
The securement solution you choose for your patients — whether a device or tape — should keep nasogastric (NG) tubes in place to help avoid disrupting therapy. Consider how the 3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device performed in a comparative study.
3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device had a statistically higher percentage of devices remaining on the skin than Hollister® Feeding Tube Attachment Device after 48 hours and 72 hours of wear.*
*As tested in a comparative, prospective clinical study of 64 healthy human subjects over 3 days of wear.
Off-center placement allows the tube to hang freely to help minimise contact with the naris.
After removing the bottom liner to expose the adhesive, place tube in alignment with vertical tail of the securement device and apply firm pressure to adhere it to the tube. Wrap the short tab (on right) of the horizontal part of the device around the tube. Wrap the long horizontal part of the device in a spiral fashion around the tube and apply firm pressure to enhance adhesion.
This intended design feature allows the tube to hang freely to help reduce the risk of pressure injury.
A non-adhesive tab at the end of the tail is intended to help aid in removal.
