- Review of StatLock NG
3Bard NG Tube
- Large Center Lumen Aspirates air, gastric
secretions - Small Lumen Vacuum breaker, prevents clogging in
eye holes - Eleven Eye Holes Promotes efficient suctioning
- Stripe Breaker Eye Visible under X-ray, assists
in tube placement - Blue Pigtail Air Lumen Easy to ID, available
for irrigation, can be capped for patient
transport - Thermo-Sensitive Plastic Softens for comfort,
assists in placement - Radiopaque Strip with Eye Visible under X-ray
4Risks associated with NG tubes
Problem Build-up of reflux due to NG tube
clogging increases the risk of gastric fluid
aspiration Solution Identify reflux before it
becomes a problem
5Bard NG Sump Tube with PreVent Anti-Reflux Filter
- Features
- Visualization of reflux in vent lumen
- Two-way hydrophobic filter
- Luer-lock syringe interface
- Benefits
- Diagnostic indicator that suction lumen is
clogged - Allows gases to escape, but prevents gastric
contents from exiting vent lumen - Allow relfux to be cleared from vent lumen in
closed system
6Competition Valve Technology
7Lopez Valve
- Known as an enteral valve or 3 way stopcock
- Allows for easy administration of fluids and
medications - Provides a closed system minimizing bacterial
contamination of the NG Tube - Prevents accidental healthcare worker exposure to
potentially infectious gastric fluids
8Instructions for Placement of Nasogastric Sump
Tube with PreVent Anti-Reflux Filter and Lopez
Valve
- Position patient. Lubricate tip of tube and
insert Nasogastric Sump Tube with PreVent
Anti-Reflux Filter and Lopez Valve following
standard hospital protocol. - Confirm placement of NG per standard hospital
protocol.
9Placement - Continued
- After the tube has been inserted into the
patient, fit the 5-in-1 adapter snugly into the
suction lumen to prevent suction loss. - Attach the Nasogastric sump tube to suction using
the lowest suction setting that will effectively
decompress the patients stomach. - Ensure the vent lumen pigtail is raised above the
level of the patients stomach.
10Maintain patency of NG Sump Lumen
- Follow Hospital Protocol for clearing main lumen
of NG sump tube. - After obstruction has been cleared, attach a
syringe to the luer lock connector on the
PreVent Anti-Reflux Filter. - Inject a minimum of 15cc of air directly through
the PreVent Anti Reflux Filter. (Do not inject
fluid through filter) - This will clear the filter and the vent lumen of
gastric fluids and ensure the vent lumen is
working properly.
11Clearing Clogs
- More clogs will be visible with this filter
than with the previous valve due to the 2 way
air flow - Clear all clogs as soon as possible to minimize
distention of the stomach
12Reminders
- There should be no reason to remove the filter
as you inject AIR right through the top - Inject ONLY AIR down the blue pigtail
- Flushing the air lumen (with AIR) is a good habit
as it helps to maintain/restore patency - Do not twist the disc like filter it will break
the seal and cause leaking. To remove filter,
twist at blue portion
13Instructions for Lopez Valve
- Attach medication port cap to side C.
- Turn valve to position one.
- Attach suction tube to side A and push together
firmly. - If connection to a male connector is desired,
attach Universal Adaptor to Side A. Insert male
connector into adaptor, and push together firmly. - To administer medication, remove and store
medication port cap in valve turn handle. - Attach syringe to side port, push and twist until
tight and turn valve to position four. - Flush valve per facility protocol.
- Return valve to position one when complete to
avoid leakage.
14Lopez Valve and Patient Transport
- Turn Lopez Valve (3 way stopcock) to the off
position - The OFF should be over the tubing lumen
- Without the Lopez Valve Insert the integral
plug into suction lumen or wedge 5 in 1 connector
in the suction lumen
15 StatLock NG Product
- Opens package. States contents are latex free
and hypoallergenic. - Cleanses skin site and NG tube with alcohol to
remove oils and lotions from the area where the
StatLock anchor pad will be placed. Allows
alcohol to dry completely - Applies skin prep generously to skin site and NG
tube where anchor pad is to be placed, and allows
prep to dry completely 10-15 seconds until smooth
to touch. - Peels away white StatLock liner off one side of
anchor pad and applies to nose, lining up Tyvek
strip with tube. (Does not adhere StatLock
anchor pad to center of the nose, should be
slightly off-set.) - Removes second white StatLock liner from anchor
pad and wraps StatLock anchor pad around NG
tube, just below the nose. - Monitors daily and changes StatLock anchor pad
as clinically indicated, at least every 7days.
16StatLock NG Stabilization Device
- The patented StatLock NG Stabilization Device is
the ideal stabilization device for nasogastric
tubes and feeding tubes. - StatLock NG Stabilization Device features a
Tyvek spine for strength and flexibility, and a
"flesh-tone" top layer for cosmetic
acceptability.
17Discontinuation of NG
- Use Standard precautions when disconnecting the
tube and emptying the collection container - Gloves gown if splashing a possibility (during
irrigation, and eye protection) - Prevent contact with fluids during transport
- Remove StatLock NG Product per directions (lots
of alcohol). -
