G-Tube Belt

The G-Tube Belt is designed and intended to be used by people who have a feeding tube that extends from the skin surface. The G-Tube Belt eliminates the need for clumsy pins and tape, and is by far the most comfortable way to secure all types of enteral feeding tubes including PEG tubes, gastrostomy tubes, and jejunostomy tubes. The G-Tube Belt increases the user’s level of tube control, helps to increase self-care, and helps to minimize the risk of accidental pull-out by combative patients and small children.

Using the G-Tube Belt should be done after consultation with a physician. It is recommended that a sterile drain sponge with slit for tube entry be placed against the skin as a buffer. Wrap waist strap around waist and secure to a comfortable fit using the hook and loop closure for adjustment. Slide tube through slit to pouch and position pouch over tube accordingly. Secure tube while not in use by coiling onto pouch face and then close bottom flap securely over tube coil.
