Description

While similar to the 20-1431AIV2 we just discussed, this model has a smaller diameter (8 French), making it more suitable for pediatric patients or adults who require a more comfortable, smaller-gauge tube for long-term nasogastric use.


Key Features

  • 8 French Diameter: A smaller, more flexible size that is often better tolerated for patients who require the tube to remain in place for several weeks.

  • Anti-IV Connector (Yellow): Features a proprietary safety connector designed specifically to not accept standard Luer-lock or IV syringes, significantly reducing the risk of accidental tubing misconnections.

    • Note: This is a Non-ENFit model. If your facility uses the new ENFit standard, you would need the ENFit version (SKU 40-1438).

  • Anti-Clog Bolus: The distal tip is engineered to be "clog-resistant," with an outlet port designed to prevent the buildup of formula or medication, which is a common issue with smaller 8 Fr tubes.

  • Polyurethane Construction: Medical-grade polyurethane allows for a thinner wall and a larger internal lumen compared to silicone, ensuring better flow rates for a tube of this small size.

  • Fully Radiopaque: The entire length of the tube is visible under X-ray, allowing clinicians to confirm proper placement in the stomach or small intestine.

  • Centimeter Markings: Printed clearly on the tube to help monitor for migration or to ensure the tube hasn't been pulled out of place.
