3M Nasogastric Securement Device
An easy-to-use securement device that reliably holds nasal feeding tubes and other nasally delivered therapy tubes in place, reducing the risk of skin injury, particularly important for patients on long term enteral feeding regimens.
The 3M Nasogastric Securement Device is designed to reliably secure nasal feeding tubes and other tubes delivering therapy through the nose. It offers an easy-to-use solution for keeping these tubes in position, which matters because an unsecured or poorly secured tube can dislodge, requiring uncomfortable reinsertion and disrupting feeding or treatment schedules.
The device is also intended to support pressure injury prevention practices and to minimise the risk of medical adhesive-related skin injury, sometimes referred to as MARSI, which can occur around the nose and face with repeated tube changes and adhesive removal. Nurses in intensive care, general medical wards, paediatric units and long term care settings apply these securement devices for patients receiving enteral feeding or other nasally delivered therapies over extended periods.
Because tube feeding and nasal therapy are common across many patient populations, hospitals and long term care facilities keep a routine supply of nasogastric securement devices, and distributors supplying nursing and critical care departments stock this item as a standard tube management product.
