Key Features
ANTI-IV* Safety Connector: This is a proprietary safety system that predates the global ENFit® standard. The proximal Y-connector is designed to be physically incompatible with standard Luer-lock or Luer-slip syringes used for IV medication. This significantly reduces the risk of accidentally injecting enteral formula into a patient's bloodstream.
ULTRA-LITE* Construction: The polyurethane material allows for a larger internal diameter (lumen) relative to its outer size. This helps prevent clogs while remaining comfortable for the patient during nasogastric placement.
Clog-Resistant Outlet Port: The distal tip features a specific "anti-clog" design to ensure consistent flow of formula and medication.
Flow-Through Stylet: The included stylet is designed to allow for "flushing" or checking for gastric aspirate while the wire is still in place, aiding in the confirmation of correct placement.
