A nurse is providing site care for a child who has a gastrostomy enteral tube. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

A. Securing the tubing to the child's abdomen helps prevent accidental dislodgement or pulling of the gastrostomy tube. This can be done using appropriate securing devices, such as adhesive dressings or commercially available tube holders, as recommended by the healthcare provider. B. Taping the tube to the child's cheek is not a recommended practice. It can cause skin irritation, discomfort, or even accidental removal of the tube. Proper securing of the tube to the abdomen using appropriate devices is the preferred method to prevent dislodgement. C. Some gastrostomy tubes require an extension set for feeding, especially low-profile devices (e.g., button-type gastrostomy tubes). This extension makes it easier to administer feeds or medications and can be removed afterward. However, this is not typically part of routine site care. D. Applying lubricant to the site is not necessary or recommended. The gastrostomy tube should be kept clean and dry. If any secretions or debris are present, they should be gently cleaned with mild soap and water, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
