The medical abbreviation NGT stands for Nasogastric Tube, which is a flexible tube inserted through the nose and into the stomach for feeding or medication administration. The abbreviation "to LIS" is less common but could potentially refer to "to left iliac spine," indicating the placement of the NGT tube towards the left side of the abdomen near the iliac spine.
