The 3M 1501NG Nasogastric Securement Device is a professional-grade solution for patients requiring long-term or short-term gastric intubation. Designed specifically to fit the contours of the nose, this large-format device features a unique "butterfly" shape that provides a wide surface area for adhesion, ensuring the tube remains in the correct position despite patient movement. The high-quality 3M adhesive is formulated to be gentle on the skin, reducing the incidence of pressure sores and irritation often associated with traditional medical tapes. Its low-profile design and skin-tone color offer a discreet appearance, making it a preferred choice for both clinical settings and home care environments.

Features:

Advanced Adhesive: Provides a strong hold that is resistant to moisture and oils yet easy to remove.
Conformable Design: The flexible material easily adapts to the bridge of the nose and the shape of the tube.
Skin-Friendly: Breathable fabric allows for air circulation, preventing moisture buildup and skin maceration.
Large Size: Specifically designed for adults to provide maximum stabilization for standard NG tubes.
Easy Application: Features a simple design that can be applied quickly by healthcare professionals or caregivers.

Benefits of:

Reduced Dislodgement: Minimizes the risk of the tube slipping out, preventing the need for painful re-insertions.
Improved Patient Comfort: Eliminates the need for bulky, irritating tapes that can cause skin breakdown.
Time-Saving: The pre-cut design allows for faster application compared to manual taping methods.
Discreet Protection: The tan color blends with the skin for a more natural look during treatment.

Safety Information:

For single use only; do not reuse.
Monitor the application site daily for signs of redness or skin irritation.
Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of oils before application for maximum adhesion.
Store in a cool, dry place.

How To Use:

Prepare: Clean the bridge of the nose with an alcohol-free skin prep and allow it to dry completely.
Position: Remove the backing from the nose-piece section and center it over the bridge of the nose.
Secure: Wrap the remaining adhesive "legs" or tabs around the nasogastric tube to lock it firmly in place.
Check: Gently press down all edges to ensure a secure seal.
