An NG tube should be left in for the duration of treatment. Changing the tube would put the patient at higher risk for trauma to the nasal passage, and esophagus, and higher risk for infection than putting the tube in once and taking it out when you're finished with it.

Why is a nasogastric tube inserted before a colostomy?
A nasogastric tube is inserted from the nose to the stomach on the day of surgery or during surgery to remove gastric secretions and prevent nausea and vomiting.
Should nasogastric tube be change every 5 days?
Often nasogastric tubes are maintained by the patient or their relatives rather than a nurse once they are used to using it. Either way, the nasogastric tube isn't generally changed unless entirely necessary, if it is causing an obstruction or damage or bleeding. As such, changing the tube is rare, however, especially in cases where it is permanantly used for feeding, it must be checked each day and flushed out to maintain hygiene on a regular basis.
