• It is recommended that the tube be irrigated every 4 hours with up to 20 ml of water (up to 10 ml for infants or children) before and after medication administration or when feeding formula is interrupted.
• The feeding tube should be monitored, regularly assessed, and replaced when clinically indicated based on functionality and patient condition.

Complications

Infrequently occurring factors as a result of use or misuse of any feeding tube may include:

• Pneumothorax, GI perforation, Aspiration, Airway obstruction, Tissue irritation or necrosis, Allergic reaction, Contamination, and Delay in diagnosis.

• Static magnetic field of 3-Tesla or less
• Spatial gradient magnetic field of 720-Gauss/cm or less
• MRI system reported a whole body averaged SAR of 3.0-W/kg (i.e., associated with a calorimetry measured value of 2.8- W/kg)

Warnings:

• The patient should not lean forward, nor should the head and neck be extended.
• Pre-measurement of tubing length is essential. Do not insert excess. Occlusion may result from the kinking of the tube.
• Coughing may indicate passage of the tube into the trachea. If tracheal passage is suspected, remove the tube. Absence of coughing does not confirm tube placement in the stomach. If resistance is encountered, immediately remove the tube. Notify clinician. Care should be taken if any type of endotracheal device is in place, as it may guide the feeding tube into the trachea. Misplacement of the feeding tube into the trachea or lungs may result in serious injury.
• Tube position in the stomach must be confirmed before flushing and use.
• Never reinsert the stylet when the tube is in the patient.
• Vigorous syringe force should not be used to irrigate, administer liquids, or unblock the tube.

Note: When administering crushed medicine, be sure to crush it finely and dilute it as appropriate (until there are no visible particles) to ensure the solution is of a low enough viscosity to avoid clogging.
