TacMed™ Basic NG/OG Tube Kit
Complete nine-item assembly for nasogastric or orogastric tube placement and gastric decompression in the prolonged field care setting.
What is the Basic NG/OG Tube Kit? It is a pre-assembled supply package from Tactical Medical Solutions containing the components needed for nasogastric or orogastric tube placement — a 14FR PVC nasogastric tube, lubricant, catheter-tip syringe, pH test strips, gauze, tape, and PPE in a single format. Intended for medical providers managing unconscious or trauma patients requiring airway protection, gastric decompression, or enteral access.
NG/OG tube placement is an advanced provider skill. This listing is a contents and specification reference only — it is not a substitute for accredited clinical training and is not a procedural how-to. Placement, confirmation, and management should be performed by appropriately credentialed providers under applicable scope of practice and medical direction.

What It Is
Nasogastric (NG) and orogastric (OG) tube placement is an advanced provider skill used in tactical and prolonged field care for two primary purposes: gastric decompression in unconscious patients (reducing aspiration risk from a distended, vomiting stomach) and enteral access for medication or nutrition during extended care. This kit pre-assembles the required items in a single package, eliminating the need to source components from multiple locations in a medical bag under time pressure.
The 14 French, 36-inch PVC tube is the standard adult NG size, long enough for reliable gastric access in most adult patients. Two Surgilube packets allow generous lubrication. The 60CC catheter-tip syringe and precision pH strips together provide redundant placement-confirmation capability without radiography — a meaningful advantage in austere environments. The cloth tape and knuckle bandage support tube securing.
Dual confirmation capability is what distinguishes this kit from simpler tube-only products. Esophageal tube misplacement is a serious, potentially fatal error; bedside confirmation tools give the credentialed provider a rapid way to verify position before use. This kit is configured for paramedics, special operations medics, and medical officers providing Prolonged Field Care (PFC).
