Ryle’s Tube

The Ryle’s Tube is a flexible, hollow, and thin tube inserted through the nose and down into the stomach. It is primarily used for the drainage of gastric contents, administration of nutrition, or medication in patients who are unable to eat or drink due to medical conditions like swallowing difficulties, unconsciousness, or after surgery. The tube is typically used in a hospital or clinical setting for short-term feeding or decompression of the stomach. The Ryle's Tube is designed for comfort and ease of use, with a soft, flexible material to minimize irritation to the nasal and throat passages. It is available in various sizes and is securely placed to ensure proper function.
