Key Features
Anti-IV Proximal Connector: Equipped with a specialized Y-port designed to reject Luer-lock and Luer-slip syringes, providing a mechanical guard against IV misconnections.
8 French Small-Bore Diameter: A versatile size that is thin enough for pediatric comfort but offers a slightly larger lumen than a 6 Fr tube for improved flow of thicker pediatric formulas.
36-Inch (91 cm) Pediatric Length: Specifically sized for children or small adults to reduce external tubing slack and improve patient safety.
3-Gram Tungsten Weight: A light distal weight that stabilizes the tube within the stomach or assists in migrating the tip past the pylorus for intestinal feeding.
Integrated Insertion Stylet: Includes a pre-inserted stainless steel guide wire to provide the necessary rigidity for placement; the stylet is removed and discarded once placement is confirmed.
ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: Stronger than silicone, allowing for thinner walls and a larger internal diameter to maximize flow while remaining resistant to gastric acids.
C-19* Water-Activated Lubricant: An internal and external coating that becomes highly lubricated when wet, facilitating a smoother insertion and easier removal of the stylet.
Radiopaque and Marked: The entire tube and weighted tip are visible under X-ray for placement verification. Centimeter markings allow for monitoring of tube depth.
