Ya, I'm in Australia :) & I've heard about the salem sump but I find googling for info hard these days (so many irrelevant things pop up but I'll give it another go). Do you know what the french measurements are? Because I have no idea, I know that they range from #8-#18 I think, but just to be clear would a #8 be smaller/thinner than a #18? Thanks aye
I'm trying to findout out more about nasogastric tubes (sizes and types). And how do you determine what type & size to use for say, a patient admitted with CVA, has no gag reflex and will require enteral feedings? Any suggestions, websites, recommendations, journal articles...anything that's NG related I suppose is much appreciated :)
There's a book: Taylor's Clinical nursing skills (i think that's the title) which gives you examples on how to document procedures since it gives you the procedures step-by-step (with rationales) and also it's recent (published 2006 me thinks) I find it's really helpful.
