An 84-year-old patient experienced a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) a week ago and has been unresponsive since that time. The patient has a nasogastric tube inserted and tube feedings have been prescribed. The patient’s husband visits very frequently and tells the nurse, “She has never been able to sleep while propped up like that. Can’t you please lower the head of the bed?” How can the nurse explain these actions to the husband? What other measures can the nurse take to prevent aspiration of the tube feedings into the lungs?
