NasoGastric Tube Holder
The Dale NasoGastric Tube Holder is ideal for holding most nasogastric tubes, including nasoenteric, Salem Sump®, and Levin enteral tubes.
The holder is an improvement over tape and other types of adhesive backed holders, because it features a skin-friendly
adhesive that adheres to the skin of the nose quickly and comfortably. The holder can remain in place for up to 72 hours.
The holder centers the tube exiting either from the left or right nostril, allowing the tube to “hang from“ the nose in a more
natural position.
Skin-friendly adhesive stays in place for up to 3 days, yet is easy to remove.
