Enabling safer, faster enteral nutrition to combat inpatient malnutrition and to reduce complications and length of hospital stay.

Patient lying down on a hospital bed with eyes closed while a healthcare professional wearing purple gloves uses a  medical device called the 'NGPOD' to test pH.


A pH confirmation device that does not require aspiration or user interpretation, two of the factors that contribute to the majority of Never Events. NGPOD® reduces the need for costly and time-wasting interventions by up to 60%.

Current practice harms the majority of patients, whose nasogastric tubes are actually in the correct position, by delaying their essential nutrition and medication.

Our proven solution is already making an impact in more than 20 hospitals across the UK. It is time to accelerate the change and ensure all patients benefit.
