6 Check residual stomach contents by attaching syringe to gastrostomy tube and aspirating.
* Residual is always checked because overloading the stomach can cause reflux &
increase the danger of aspiration* If the residual amount or increases , this needs to be reported to the physician C
7 Attach syringe barrel to gastrostomy tube. Fill with formula.Remove clamp .( This prevents air from entering the stomach and causing
distension )
C
8 Elevate receptacle. Allow formula to flow slowly by gravityForce should never be
used C
