Key Features
Optimal 8 Fr Lumen: The 8 French diameter provides a larger internal lumen compared to 5 Fr or 6 Fr models. This is ideal for delivering thicker specialty infant formulas or medications that might otherwise clog a narrower tube.
Neonatal Weighting: The 1.5-gram tungsten weight is light enough for fragile gastric tissue while providing sufficient gravity to keep the tube tip seated in the stomach and prevent coiling.
Anti-Clog Technology: The "Ultra" bolus tip is designed with an outlet port slightly larger than the internal diameter of the tube. This minimizes the risk of the tube becoming blocked at the distal end.
Polyurethane Strength: Polyurethane is more durable than silicone, allowing for thinner walls and a larger internal lumen. This ensures maximum flow efficiency even at a short 12-inch length.
Precise Placement: The tube features clear centimeter markings, which are critical in neonatal patients where small adjustments in depth can mean the difference between gastric and esophageal or post-pyloric placement.
