Description
Key Features
Low-Profile Design: The external bolster sits flush against the skin, making it discrete under clothing and minimizing the risk of the tube being snagged or accidentally pulled out by active patients.
ENFit Safety Connectors: Features the international standard ENFit system, specifically designed to prevent misconnections between enteral feeding systems and other medical connectors (like IV lines).
Medical-Grade Silicone: Built from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for patient comfort and durability. The material remains flexible and soft against the stoma site.
Recessed Distal Tip: The tip of the tube is recessed at the end of the balloon to minimize irritation to the gastric mucosa (stomach lining).
Anti-Reflux Valve: An internal one-way valve prevents stomach contents from leaking out when the extension set is disconnected.
Tapered Tip: The distal tip is tapered to facilitate easier and more comfortable insertion during tube replacements.
