"Follow the steps below for commencing feeds via a long term tube. 1. Warm milk in a bottle and bowl of warm water as usual. 2. If the infant is in a cot pick them up for feeds and utilise a pacifier for non-nutritive sucking if appropriate 3. Connect a 50 ml syringe to the long term feeding tube and pour feed into syringe. 4. Adjust the flow of the feed by raising or lowering the height of the syringe. 5. When finished flush the tube with 3 ml of sterile water via 50 ml syringe. 6. Close tube. Note: USE ONLY A 50 ML SYRINGE TO ADMINISTER ANY MILK OR MEDICATION. The higher pressure of the smaller syringes has potential to perforate the tube."
