Despite national alerts and guidance, NG tube related Never Events relating to misinterpretation of check x-rays persist, resulting in several cases of harm and death each year. Utilising radiographers to identify and act on misplaced NG tubes that require a check x-ray is a proven tool for preventing such Never Events. A national radiographer-led pathway has been created and is in it’s first phase of roll out in specific NHS Trusts and Headboards. This talk will outline this pathway and ask for your engagement and support with the pathway.
