Description
This low-profile "button" device is one of the most widely used sizes for pediatric patients and lean adults. The 16 French diameter provides an excellent balance between flow rate and a small stoma footprint, while the 1.0 cm stoma length is a standard choice for patients with a relatively thin abdominal wall.
Key Features
Discrete Profile: Sits flush against the skin, making it easy to conceal under clothing and reducing the risk of accidental displacement or snagging.
ENFit Safety System: Uses the international standard ENFit connectors to ensure secure connections and eliminate the risk of accidental misconnections with IV or other non-enteral systems.
High-Quality Silicone: Medical-grade, biocompatible silicone construction is soft for patient comfort and durable for long-term use.
Recessed Distal Tip: The tip of the tube is designed to be flush with the balloon when inflated, minimizing irritation to the stomach lining (gastric mucosa).
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A built-in one-way valve prevents stomach contents from leaking out when the extension set is disconnected.
Radiopaque Stripe: Features a barium sulfate stripe for easy visualization under X-ray to confirm the tube is correctly placed in the stomach.
