Description

Technical Specifications

  • Tube Size: 8 Fr (Ideal for adult comfort)

  • Tube Length: 43 in. (109 cm)

  • Tracking Technology: Integrated electromagnetic transmitting stylet (CORTRAK* 2 compatible)

  • Material: Medical-grade Polyurethane (ULTRA-LITE*)

  • Tip Type: Non-weighted with an Anti-Clog bolus

  • Connector Type: Universal / ANTI-IV* (Pre-ENFit version)

  • Visibility: Fully radiopaque with centimeter depth markings


Key Features

  • Real-Time Path Visualization: The transmitting stylet communicates with a receiver unit placed on the patient's chest. This allows the clinician to view a 3D-like map of the tube's progress on the CORTRAK* monitor, helping to confirm the tube is midline and enters the stomach rather than the lungs.

  • Small-Bore Advantage: The 8 Fr diameter is smaller and more flexible than 10 Fr or 12 Fr models, making it much better tolerated for patients who require nasogastric access for several weeks.

  • Extended Reach: The 43-inch length provides the necessary slack to navigate past the stomach and into the duodenum or jejunum (post-pyloric placement) if required.

  • Anti-Clog Design: The distal tip features a "bowed" design where the exit port is larger than the internal diameter of the tube. This prevents the "trap" effect where thick formulas or medications harden at the tip.

  • Polyurethane Construction: Polyurethane's high strength allows for thinner walls than silicone. This means the 8 Fr CORFLO* has a relatively large internal lumen, which further helps prevent clogs.
