Ng tube had been placed for gastric decompression.Rn attempted to administer ct contrast through ng and noted fluid and gastric contents leaking onto patient's gown.Upon examination of ng tube it was found that where the blue ant-reflux tube exited the clear portion of the ng tube that there was an opening that was allowing the escape of fluids being instilled/drained.Enteric tube had to be removed and another ng tube was placed.Manufacturer response for nasogastric sump tube with prevent anti-reflux filter, (brand not provided) (per site reporter).I spoke to bard quality issues.They are sending me shipping material.
