Key Features
Anti-IV V2 Safety Connector: The proximal Y-port is engineered to reject standard Luer-lock or Luer-slip syringes. This mechanical safeguard is designed to prevent the catastrophic error of connecting enteral nutrition to an intravenous (IV) line.
8 French Small-Bore Diameter: Provides a wider internal diameter compared to 5 Fr or 6 Fr neonatal tubes. This extra room is ideal for administering crushed medications or high-viscosity pediatric formulas without clogging.
22-Inch (55 cm) Neonatal/Infant Length: Sized to reach the stomach in infants and young children while minimizing external tubing slack that could be snagged or pulled.
1.5-Gram Tungsten Weight: A lightweight distal bolus that helps anchor the tube tip in the gastric floor. This weight provides stability against movement or reflux without being overly heavy for a small child's stomach.
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 via X-ray.
ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: A medical-grade, radiopaque material that is more durable than silicone, allowing for thinner walls and a larger internal lumen.
Water-Activated Lubricant: The internal lumen and tip are coated with a lubricant that becomes highly slippery when wet, facilitating a smoother insertion and easier removal of the stylet.
