Abstract

A nasogastric tube introducer device comprising a curved, hollow tube 1 made of any appropriate material which has two extensions 2, 3 at its proximal end 4 and a hair-line slit 5 extending from the proximal end 4 to the distal end 6. The slit 5 is partially closed by a film of glue along half its depth (1, fig 2) so that the slit 5 is closed during insertion but remains visible. Preferably one of the extensions is spoon-shaped 3 to hold the device and the other extension 2 is shorter to protrude outside the mouth and prevent unwanted movement. The introducer may be made of any clinically compatible material. The introducer may be used in the nose or mouth of a patient and facilitates the insertion of a nasogastric tube into the stomach.
