Key Features
High-Flow 20 Fr Diameter: This is a large-bore tube, making it ideal for high-viscosity formulas, blenderized diets, and preventing clogs from complex medication regimens.
Secur-Lok External Bolster:* Features a sliding external ring (bolster) that holds the tube securely against the skin. It is designed to allow air to circulate around the stoma site to keep the skin healthy.
Inflatable Internal Balloon: The internal retention balloon is made of high-quality silicone that holds the tube in place within the stomach.
Recessed Distal Tip: At the recommended fill volume, the tip of the tube is shielded by the balloon to prevent the silicone from irritating the gastric wall.
Radiopaque Stripe: Running the length of the tube, this stripe allows for easy visualization under X-ray to confirm placement.
Universal Connectors: Does not require special extension sets; feeding sets and syringes connect directly to the ports at the end of the tube.
