information about the patient.

use correction fluid in a written medical record.

Delaying an attempt at inserting the nasogastric tube
makes success no more likely and risks harming the
patient.

resistance when inserting a nasogastric tube?
Ask the patient to cough.
Withdraw the tube to the nasopharynx.
Encourage the patient to swallow.
Instruct the patient to hyperextend the neck. - ANSWER-
Withdraw the tube to the nasopharynx.
If the patient starts to cough, experiences a drop in oxygen
saturation, or shows other signs of respiratory distress,
withdraw the tube into the posterior nasopharynx until
normal breathing resumes. Do not force the tube or push it
against resistance.
