There are medical reasons that require feeding a baby through a nasogastric tube?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: This is not appropriate for any healthy babies, but premature and ill infants, as well as some with certain swallowing issues, could possibly benefit from short-term use of n-g feeding.
