Description
Key Features
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discrete and significantly reducing the risk of accidental snagging or pulling compared to traditional "long" tubes.
ENFit Safety Connector: Utilizes the purple threaded ENFit system to comply with international safety standards, ensuring that only enteral feeding sets and syringes can be connected.
Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone construction is soft for comfort and durable for long-term use.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve prevents the leakage of stomach contents when the extension set is disconnected.
Tapered Distal Tip: Designed for a smoother, less traumatic insertion during routine home or clinical replacements.
Radiopaque Stripe: Includes a barium sulfate stripe to allow clinicians to confirm proper gastric placement via X-ray.
