Highlights
- Reliable securement: Adhesive stays in place in challenging locations for up to 48 hours
- Skin performance: Designed to help reduce the risk of pressure injury by allowing the NG tube to hang freely* *Data collected during a US customer preference evaluation Feb - Apr 2022. Current devices noted by participants were Dale® brand and Derma Sciences brand
- Skin performance: Designed to deliver the securement power you need while minimizing damage to skin
- Easy to use: Easy to apply and remove; allows for standardization of application technique
- Transparent: Allows for site visibility of skin and nasal feeding tubes and other tubes to aid in assessment
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
Designed to help reduce pressure injury risk.
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.
A comparison of the 3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device to the Hollister® Feeding Tube Attachment Device.2
-
More Reliable Securement:
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.
As you apply the 3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device, remember these helpful tips:
-
Do not place on the centre of the nose.Off-centre placement allows the tube to hang freely to help minimize contact with the naris.
-
Wrap the short tab of the horizontal tail.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.
-
Do not attempt to tape over the non-adhesive section of the device.This intended design feature allows the tube to hang freely to help reduce the risk of pressure injury
-
Use the non-adhesive tab at the end of the tail to unwrap the device from the tube, while stabilizing the tube.A non-adhesive tab at the end of the tail is intended to help aid in removal.
Suggested applications
- The 3M™ Nasogastric Securement Device is intended to secure nasogastric tubes to skin near and around the nose
