Abstract

Gastric tube implantation is also called nasal feeding. For patients who can not eat through the mouth, the gastric tube is artificially placed into the esophagus through the nostril or oral cavity, through the pharynx, through the esophagus to the stomach, through the manual pressure syringe push rod and piston to the nasogastric tube and stomach of the patients to fetch water and food, to ensure patients take adequate nutrition, water and drugs. It is the basic technology that clinical doctors and nurses must master.
