AMT Bridle Pro Nasal Tube Retaining Systems

When a nasogastric or nasoenteric feeding tube slips or gets pulled out, it means an interrupted feeding schedule, a delayed medication, and often another uncomfortable reinsertion for the patient. The AMT Bridle Pro line addresses exactly that problem: it secures NG and nasoenteric tubes using a nasal bridle system that anchors around the nasal septum rather than relying on tape alone.

Clinicians choose a bridle approach because taped tubes fail. Adhesive loosens with facial oils and moisture, skin breaks down under repeated tape changes, and confused or agitated patients dislodge tubes far too easily. A septum-anchored retaining system holds the tube far more reliably, reduces the number of unplanned removals, and spares fragile facial skin from repeated taping. That translates directly into fewer reinsertions, less radiographic re-confirmation, and better delivery of prescribed nutrition and medication.

The Bridle Pro system is built around a soft retaining tape passed behind the nasal septum with a magnet-tipped placement probe, then secured with a clip that holds the feeding tube without occluding the airway. Because it is designed to be atraumatic to the septum and easy to remove when therapy ends, it suits both short-term acute placements and longer enteral feeding courses. Care teams typically ask about how long a bridle can stay in place, whether it interferes with tube exchanges, and how to remove it safely — all points where the system's design favors a controlled, non-damaging release.

These retaining components are intended for use by trained clinical staff as part of an enteral feeding protocol. AMT (Applied Medical Technology) manufactures a broad range of enteral access and securement products, so many facilities standardize on a single supplier for compatibility and simpler ordering.
