Description
The Avanos Medical CORGRIP Nasogastric/Nasointestinal (NG/NI) Feeding Tube Retention System is an accessory securement device for adult patients. It stabilizes NG/NI tubes by providing a secure external fixation point, helping to reduce inadvertent displacement or removal during enteral feeding or gastric decompression.
Key Features
- External fixation point designed to stabilize NG/NI tubes in adult patients
- Slot‑Slide‑Lock (SSL) clamp mechanism for controlled positioning and securement
- Size‑specific, color‑coded options support quick identification and appropriate fit
- Compatible with a broad range of tube sizes used for enteral feeding and gastric decompression
- Supplied non‑sterile; sterilization before use not required
- Includes water‑soluble lubricant
Indications and Compatibility
- Enteral feeding tubes: ≥ 8 Fr
- NG decompression/suction/drainage tubes: up to 18 Fr
Design and Mechanism
The Slot‑Slide‑Lock (SSL) clamp provides a structured, stepwise approach to securement. The tube is guided into the slot, adjusted to the desired external position, and locked to maintain placement. Size‑specific options help align clamp fit with the tube’s French size, while color coding aids rapid size verification.

Use Considerations
This device is a securement accessory and is not a feeding or decompression tube. Select the size that corresponds to the tube’s French size and ensure compatibility with the intended clinical application. Follow institutional protocols and the device labeling for application and removal.
