16. Confirm placement.
Confirm feeding tube position per institutional protocol. Supportive
confirmation includes auscultation of the upper left quadrant during
injection of air using a syringe and aspiration of gastric contents. If stylet
is used, placement confirmation may be confirmed with a stylet secured
within the tube. These tubes are equipped with a radiopaque material for
facilitating radiological (X-ray or fluoroscopic) confirmation.
If there is uncertainty of the tube’s distal location after institutional
placement verification methods have been performed, confirmation by
X-ray should beconsidered.
Stylet must be removed before commencement of enteral nutrition
delivery.Safely dispose of all supplies according to the policy of your
facility. The interface cable is re-usable, do not dispose.
CAUTION
Disconnect the feeding tube from the interface cable prior to feedings.

In the main menu, tap the folder menu icon. The folder menu will appear,
displaying patient folders. Patient folders are named using their name,
date of birth, and ID number. Thepatient folder holds all images captured
during theprocedure.
Double tap the desired patient folder to view a list of images
storedwithin.
Double tapping on one of the images will display it on the screen.
18. Export images to USB.
Images can be exported to a USB flash drive and opened on
anothercomputer.

Then, tap the box on the left of the image(s) to be exported. Tapping the
box at the left of the folder selects allimages.

For privacy purposes, a password has been created by an administrator.
The password will be required in order to view the images on computer.

to use all upper-case letters.
After the files are exported, disconnect the USB flash drive.
Use WinZip™* or 7-Zip to open the files. It is considered best practice to
decrypt and open the files as soon as possible so that a password is no
longer required.
