Maximum Jejunal Reach: While standard tubes are 36 or 43 inches, the 55-inch length is essential for reaching deep into the small intestine. This is typically required for patients with high aspiration risk or severe gastroparesis who need to bypass the stomach entirely.
ANTI-IV* Safety Connector: The "AIV2" suffix refers to the proprietary safety connector. The Y-port geometry is designed to be physically incompatible with standard Luer-lock or Luer-slip syringes, providing a critical safeguard against the accidental administration of enteral formula into an IV line.
8 French Comfort: The narrow 8 Fr diameter is better tolerated by patients than larger 10 Fr or 12 Fr tubes, reducing the risk of nasal mucosal irritation and discomfort during prolonged use.
Bowed Anti-Clog Tip: The distal bolus is designed so the exit port is slightly larger than the internal diameter of the tube. This is a vital feature for an 8 Fr tube of this length to prevent medication or formula solids from occluding the tip.
Polyurethane Durability: Polyurethane is significantly stronger than silicone, allowing for thinner walls and a larger internal lumen. This ensures reliable flow rates and prevents the tube from collapsing during aspiration.
