ASPEN recommends the following safe practices for NG/ NE tubes:
- Use safe practices for NG/NE tube placement, verification and securement.
- Develop an institutional competency plan using the ASPEN Bedside Feeding Tube Placement Competency Model and Checklist.
ENvizion Medical provided an educational grant to ASPEN to underwrite the creation of it to underscore the importance that feeding tubes have in providing nutrition support in the ICU
