Nasogastric tube syndrome is a rare but serious and potentially life-threatening complication of nasogastric intubation. It should be considered in all patients who present with pain, hoarseness, or shortness of breath after nasogastric intubation or extubation. It requires prompt treatment and close follow-up.
A nasogastric (NG) tube is a flexible tube of rubber or plastic that is passed through the nose, down through the esophagus, and into the stomach. It can be used to either remove substances from, or add them to, the stomach. An NG tube is only meant to be used on a temporary basis and is not for long-term use.
