Jason, a 22 y.o. accident victim, requires an NG tube for feeding. What should you immediately do after inserting an NG tube for liquid enteral feedings? 1. Aspirate for gastric secretions with a syringe. 2. Begin feeding slowly to prevent cramping. 3. Get an X-ray of the tip of the tube within 24 hours. 4. Clamp off the tube until the feedings begin. #27: nurseslabs/nclex-exam-gastrointestinal-disorders-180-items/
