Abstract
Early in the Covid-19 pandemic, the NGSIG predicted the number of sick Covid-19 patients requiring nasogastric tube (NGT) feeding in critical care and high dependency areas would increase dramatically with consequent increased risk of unrecognised misplacement leading to Never Events (NE) and/or pneumothorax. Based on our Position Paper on NGT safety1 we produced an Aide Memoire2 with NHSE/I endorsed by NNNG (National Nutrition Nurse Group), The Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine, The Intensive Care Society, The Royal College of Anaesthetists and the Association of Anaesthetists before publication2.
