Nasoesophageal and nasogastric tubes can be dislodged if the patient is vomiting. Epistaxis and sneezing can occur with a nasoesophageal or nasogastric tube. Local anesthesia reduces the risk of sneezing. Nasogastric tubes may trigger gastroesophageal reflux and regurgitation. In this case it is then recommended to convert the tube into a nasoesophageal tube by pulling the tube into the esophagus. Obstruction of the tube can occur. It is important to regularly flush the tube with saline.
