Description
This model is a Non-Styleted and Sterile tube. It is a standard "mid-length" choice for NICU and pediatric patients, offering a slightly larger diameter than the 5 French version to facilitate better flow of breast milk or specialized formulas while remaining flexible and safe for insertion without a guide wire.
Key Features
Pediatric Versatility: The 22-inch length is ideal for infants and small children who have outgrown the 15-inch neonatal length but do not yet require a full adult-length tube.
Non-Styleted (No Wire): This tube is designed for atraumatic insertion. By omitting the metal guide wire, clinicians reduce the risk of accidental internal trauma to the delicate mucosal linings during the placement process.
Sterile Packaging: Provided sterile, making it the preferred choice for hospitals with strict infection control protocols for neonatal and pediatric populations.
Non-Weighted (Clear) Tip: The absence of a tungsten weight makes the tube extremely lightweight and comfortable. The clear distal bolus allows for easy visual inspection of the tip.
ENFit Safety Connector: Features the purple ISO-standard connector. This safety feature ensures the tube only connects to enteral syringes and administration sets, preventing accidental infusion of feeding into IV lines.
ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: Stronger and more durable than silicone, this material allows for thinner walls and a larger internal lumen. This maximizes flow and helps prevent clogging in this small 6 Fr diameter.
