Key Features
Ultra Low-Profile: The external base sits level with the skin, reducing the risk of the tube catching on clothing or being pulled out by active patients.
Proximal Anti-Reflux Valve: An internal one-way valve prevents gastric juices and formula from leaking out of the port when the extension set is not attached.
SECUR-LOK* Locking System: The "lock-and-key" connection for extension sets prevents messy accidental disconnects during feeding or sleep.
Tapered Distal Tip: The end of the tube is tapered for a smoother, less painful insertion process.
Radiopaque Stripe: Features a built-in line that is clearly visible under X-ray, allowing clinicians to confirm the tube is seated correctly in the stomach.
Recessed Tip: When the balloon is inflated to the 3 mL mark, the tube's tip is shielded, preventing it from poking or irritating the gastric mucosa.
