A Novel Nasogastric Tube with Wireless Chip

Placement of nasogastric (NG) tube is a common procedure in clinical setting to provide feeding or administration of drugs. The NG tube has to be confirmed to the location of the stomach before feeding. Misplacement of NG tubes to the trachea can lead to life-threatening condition, such as aspiration pneumonia after feeding into trachea.

Traditional method for confirmation of the position of the NG tube are not 100% accurate or easy to perform (e.g. confirmed by X-ray). All the methods are limited to specific clinical setting. Our product CM Tube can rapidly and conveniently confirm the proper location of the nasogastric tube.

A RFID sensor microchip is mounted at the tip of the NG tube. The electro-magnet sensor system allows accurate identification of the placement of an NG tube, which can be a useful tool for confirming bedside NG tube placement.

 Four advantages of CM Tube：

1. Reduce X-ray exposure
2. Easy to perform
3. Repeated measurement
4. Applicable
