Key Features
Anti-IV V2 Safety Connector: This legacy safety Y-port is designed to reject standard Luer-lock or Luer-slip syringes. It serves as a physical barrier to prevent the accidental administration of enteral nutrition into IV lines—a critical safety feature in busy NICU/PICU environments.
6 French Small-Bore Diameter: Sized specifically for infants and small children. It provides a larger internal lumen than a 5 Fr tube, making it better suited for fortified breast milk or thicker pediatric formulas while remaining comfortable for the patient.
22-Inch (55 cm) Neonatal Length: The shortest length in the weighted line, ensuring the tube reaches the stomach without excessive external tubing that could be accidentally pulled by the infant.
1.5-Gram Tungsten Weight: A lightweight distal bolus that helps anchor the tube in the gastric body. It provides enough gravity to prevent the tube from migrating upward into the esophagus without being too heavy for a neonatal stomach.
Integrated Insertion Stylet: Includes a pre-inserted stainless steel guide wire. Since 6 Fr polyurethane is very flexible, the stylet provides the necessary rigidity for placement and is discarded once the tube's position is verified.
ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: A medical-grade, radiopaque material that is more durable than silicone. This strength allows for thinner walls, maximizing the internal diameter for improved flow rates.
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.
