Clinical Question re: tube feedings

[Guest guest]

Hello Members,

Anybody have experience with clogs in tubes of TF patients and what do you do

to unclog the tube? I've recently begun working on the homecare side and have

encountered several patients that have issues with clogged tubes. I have

explained the importance of flushing before and after feeds, meds, etc. but some

still have issues.

Thanks,

Michele Drozd, MS, RD
