Zero safety reports of stuck feeding tubes in the year after adopting Yewtwist.

About half of the NG tubes on this unit were being reported “cemented stuck.” The hospital gave each patient their own Yewtwist, kept at the bedside. In the 12 months that followed, there were no safety reports of stuck enteral tubes.

“I wish this was around three years ago. I would not be able to return back to work without Yewtwist, and that is the truth!”

Lana Dialysis nurse
“This product has blown my mind! Where was this when I started nursing 16 years ago? A positive pressure cap on a PICC line was stuck like glue. Almost zero effort when we used the Yewtwist.”

Patty A. RN, community hospital nurse
“It was so easy. After two twists, I was able to disconnect my son’s line without him getting overstimulated. It took me less than 10 seconds.”

Elisa S. Parent and caregiver
“It’s easy to use, safe and works every time! Nurses in Vancouver community use it all the time and love it. We wouldn’t want to go back to the forceps we used before.”

RN, Community IV Educator, Vancouver
“We have had great success and received wonderful feedback from my team and nurses on the unit.”

Clinical Coordinator, Vascular Access, leading US pediatric hospital
“I honestly can not recommend it enough. It’s a great product.”

J.P. Leading US pediatric hospital
“This product is a life saver. Changing the caps on my central line can be very difficult, especially since the chlorhexidine solution I use to sterilize the caps is often very sticky.”

Justin P. Dialysis patient, Toronto
“My home health nurse is just as obsessed with them as I am! She wishes that all her patients had them. They have helped her get stuck claves off me multiple times now and she is so grateful she doesn’t have to worry about damaging my line with Kelly clamps anymore.”

Molly Y. Patient
“I tried everything trying to disconnect with no success. I got instant success with Yewtwist!”

Oncology patient
“It comes right off. Amazing! My new favorite tool. Try it and save your hands.”

RN, pediatric bone marrow transplant unit
“Our son is on TPN and we have had problems getting bungs off for changes. Your tools are a game changer!”

Mother of a child on TPN, Australia
“We haven’t seen any safety reports of stuck enteral tubes since implementation.”
