Anyone ever use a feeding pump with an NG tube?

I've used NG tubes in the past, but never with a pump. Wondering if anyone here has ever used a feeding pump in their medfet practices.

I've been tubefed via NG, with a pump. But in the hospital, not a medfet setting.

Sounds a bit dangerous to be doing in a medfet scene

I love NG tubes and I'm using it frequently, but only with gravity bag.I wish to experiment the pump...

Watched some videos of that and nearly puked just looking at it. I hope this never happens to me.

Sure, a Kangaroo pump will deliver feedings at whatever rate you set and will not allow a "free flow" of fluid.

Feeding through a NG tube is the next step for me

As I've said many times before the use of NG tubes by non medical persons outside the hospital is just asking for a myriad of potentially dangerous and even fatal problems. Aspiration pneumonia , laryngospasm, oronasal trauma and more are just a few. As a resident I personally saw a patient who had been drowned in two liters of beef broth. He was given it with a pump and improperly placed tube which was in his trachea. Beware!

I've had an NG tube with feeding pump whilst in hospital . I hate them . They are really unpleasant . After what happened to me with an NG tube in a hospital setting I'd never recommend anyone to use one in play .

Once again this topic about NG tube and feeding has arisen in a play setting. Liquidsky has once again stated why this is a very unwise procedure for a play setting:

Nicknoks has also posted about her experiences in hospital where seasoned professionals placed an NG tube :

Just before Christmas I spent 46 days in hospital .During that time I had an ng tube inserted as I needed nutrition.At one point I was vomiting the tubes out due to the illness I had. As they tried to insert another one I started gagging and coughing and vomited .Within a few hours I had a high fever and couldn't breathe properly.Vomit had aspirated into my lungs from the ng tube insertion.I then spent a very rocky 2 weeks in ICU with an aspiration pneumonia.Never again would I want to go through that .That was in a medical setting .Imagine if you were at home and that happened.

Even with all the precautions incidents like what happen to Niknoks can happen in a clinical setting by professionals that perform this on a daily basis. Aspiration pneumonia is not a pleasant or fun experience, nor is being ventilated for it. I work in ITU ( US equivalent is ICU) and see this sort of incident on a fairly regular basis.

Seasoned professionals can easily insert it into the lungs ( I have done it myself, and I have inserted about a couple thousand NG tubes) which can result in sever bronchospasms and in a play setting this may have life threatening consequences as you cannot breathe properly. In addition you can vomit and aspirate causing an aspiration pneumonia as well as experiencing a vasovagal response with its hypotension ( low B/P), bradycardia ( slow heart rate) and fainting on insertion.

At present we have to have radiological evidence that the NG tube is placed correctly before commencing any feed, due to the fact of incorrect placement and the potential complications. The use of "injecting air and listening for it in the stomach with a stethoscope " or litmus/PH paper is no longer accepted for NG tubes placement due to the number of false positives.

The addition of a feeding pump will only intensify any complications due to the sheer volume of feed a pump can deliver in a short period.

I am positive that in a play setting you don't have the the equipment, medical/clinical skills or medication to handle and treat any emergency situation. So while you may think its all "fun" be aware of the serious nature of your medfet play and the possible complications as it only takes one time for something to go amiss and the consequences can be tragic.

So please be aware this is NOT FOR A PLAY SETTING!

Listen to the knowledgeable medical professionals in this thread. They speak truth.

Before considering engaging in any new medfet play I always search for case reports of what happens when the procedure goes wrong. I did that for NG tubes and those reports are horrifying. The complications of a NG tube gone wrong are fairly frequently fatal even with access to immediate professional medical care in a hospital setting, and complications do happen fairly regularly as RN1993 says. Factor in that for untrained people the complication rates are likely to be at least an order of magnitude higher, and that makes NG tubes WAY outside ANY sensible risk profile for erotic play.

If you did this, and something bad happened, how would you explain to your insurance company that they should pay your medical claim?

Your family would probably be calling your life insurance company.

Folks, this is a good way to get dead!

He died in his prime of an untimely accident. But not nearly quickly enough.

Liquidski, What would you call it if a patient died of aspiration pneumonia while on a feeding pump in a hospital.

I would not like to be any part of it.

I would call it a lawsuit, Stephen. The only reason my case of the beef broth drowning wasn't was because it was a county hospital and he sadly had no relatives.

Hey Susie , I think the family would get paid only if the family sued and with good lawyer. The insurance co would graciously refund the premiums with interest. Reminds me of the recent surfer vid

What surfer vid? Did someone say surfing or was I hallucinating?

Even though the death was accidental??

Caused by a stupid decision, but still accidental.
