Service Overview

Nasogastric tubes (NGT) provide vital nutrition for those unable to eat orally. Alongside standard care, we offer the innovative "Two-Piece NGT". Its detachable design minimises the impact on appearance, allowing patients to socialise with dignity and comfort between feeds.

FAQs

What is a 'Two-Piece NGT'?

It is an innovative nasogastric tube that allows the long feeding line to be detached from the short nasal segment. When not in use, only a small, capped connector remains visible, significantly improving the patient's appearance and mobility.

Is the Two-Piece NGT suitable for everyone?

Most patients currently using a conventional NGT are eligible to switch. Our specialist nurses will conduct a thorough clinical assessment during their visit to confirm suitability for the individual.

How often is replacement needed?

Replacement intervals depend primarily on the tube's material, typically one week to one month. Our nurses will schedule home visits based on the material and your physician's recommendations.
