Indications for Use

The NGT is intended for gastric decompression, gastric suction, administration of nutritional supplements and medication, and to monitor core temperature.

Device Story

NGT Nasogastric Thermistor is a three-lumen plastic tube; primary lumen for gastric drainage/suction; secondary lumen for air venting to prevent mucosal blockage; third lumen houses a temperature thermistor. Device used in clinical settings by healthcare staff to facilitate gastric decompression and monitor patient core temperature. Output is suctioned gastric fluid and temperature data; temperature data read by external monitor connected to thermistor. Clinical staff use suction for drainage and temperature readings for patient monitoring. Benefits include combined functionality of standard nasogastric suction and core temperature monitoring in a single device.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Plastic three-lumen tube; primary suction lumen; vent lumen; thermistor-integrated lumen. Dimensions within standard range. Passive sensing via thermistor. Standalone device requiring external suction source and temperature monitor.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring gastric decompression, gastric suction, or administration of nutritional supplements and medication, and for monitoring core temperature.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A gastrointestinal tube and accessories is a device that consists of flexible or semi-rigid tubing used for instilling fluids into, withdrawing fluids from, splinting, or suppressing bleeding of the alimentary tract. This device may incorporate an integral inflatable balloon for retention or hemostasis. This generic type of device includes the hemostatic bag, irrigation and aspiration catheter (gastric, colonic, etc.), rectal catheter, sterile infant gavage set, gastrointestinal string and tubes to locate internal bleeding, double lumen tube for intestinal decompression or intubation, feeding tube, gastroenterostomy tube, Levine tube, nasogastric tube, single lumen tube with mercury weight balloon for intestinal intubation or decompression, and gastro-urological irrigation tray (for gastrological use).

Special Controls

*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls). The barium enema retention catheter and tip with or without a bag that is a gastrointestinal tube and accessory or a gastronomy tube holder accessory is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I (general controls) for the dissolvable nasogastric feed tube guide for the nasogastric tube. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 876.9.

Medical Innovative Products 205 Roval Oak Ave. Pittsburgh, PA 15235 Telephone: (412)-244-9205 Contact Individual: Michael Swartz - Device Name Proprietary Name: NGT Nasogastric Thermistor Common/Usual Name: Nasogastric Tube - 3. Identification of Predicate or Legally Marketed Device - Bard Nasogastric Sump Tube manufactured by C.R. Bard cleared under K960176 . - Arqyle Salem Sump Tube manufactured by Sherwood Medical cleared under K935781 . - Mon-a-therm Esophageal Stethoscope with temperature sensor manufactured by . Mallinckrodt cleared under K914887 - Device Description 4. The NGT Nasogastric Tube is made of a plastic material, contains three lumens, a main suction lumen, a smaller vent lumen, and a still smaller temperature thermistor lumen. The primary suction lumen is used for drainage, the second vent lumen provides an air inlet as a mechanism to break suction minimizing the potential for tube blockage secondary to mucosal tissue invagination into the side holes of the primary lumen. The device is intended to be used with a standard suction source to facilitate drainage. - 5. Intended Use The NGT is intended for gastric decompression, gastric suction, administration of nutritional supplements and medication, and to monitor core temperature. - 6. Comparison of Technological Characteristics The NGT Nasogastric Tube has similar technological characteristics to the Bard Nasoqastric Sump Tube and the Argyle Salem Sump Tube in that the materials are the sizes available are within the range of sizes currently available, but the NGT Nasogastric Tube incorporates a temperature monitoring capability. This temperature monitoring capability is similar to the Mallinckrodt Mon-a-therm Esophageal Stethoscope with temperature sensor. However, the NGT Nasogastric Tube incorporates this temperature thermistor into a third lumen whereas the other predicates all have 2 lumens. The differences in the configurations of each of the devices do not affect the ability of the device to suction gastric fluids. Each of the devices requires monitoring by the clinical staff to assure proper nasogastric tube function. Each of the devices uses the same operating principal. ## 7 Performance Testing Bench testing was performed on the NGT to demonstrate equivalency. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. The logo consists of a circular seal with the text "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES - USA" around the perimeter.
