CORFLO* PEG Fixation Device Base and Cover for 20 Fr, RA-0020
Features & Clinical Benefits
Right-Angle Stabilization: Like the smaller models, it secures the 20 Fr tube at a 90-degree angle to the body, which reduces the profile of the tube under clothing and prevents the tube from "standing up" and snagging.
Anti-Migration Design: The locking cover prevents "pistoning" (the sliding of the tube in and out of the stoma). This is especially important for 20 Fr tubes, as the larger stoma site is more susceptible to irritation if the tube is not held steady.
Pressure Distribution: The wide base helps distribute the weight and tension of the larger 20 Fr tube, minimizing the risk of pressure sores at the exit site.
Foam Interface: Features a soft foam backing that rests against the skin to absorb minor amounts of moisture and provide a buffer between the rigid plastic and the patient's abdomen.
