Key Features
Pediatric Weighted Tip: The 1.5-gram tungsten weight provides the necessary gravity to keep the tube seated in the stomach "well." This is especially useful for active pediatric patients where a non-weighted tube might easily coil or migrate into the esophagus.
Anti-Clog Technology: The distal bolus is designed so the exit port is slightly larger than the internal diameter of the tube. This "Ultra" design prevents thick pediatric formulas or crushed medications from clogging the end of the tube.
Polyurethane Durability: Polyurethane is stronger and more kink-resistant than silicone. It allows for thinner walls, ensuring that this 8 Fr tube maintains a larger internal lumen for consistent flow rates.
Flow-Through Stylet: The stainless steel wire allows for flushing and aspiration while the wire is still in place. This helps clinicians verify gastric placement via pH or air insufflation without removing the stylet prematurely.
Placement Monitoring: Clearly printed centimeter markings allow nursing staff to monitor the tube's position easily, ensuring that any accidental outward migration is caught immediately.
