Key Features

  • High-Flow 24 French Diameter: The wide lumen is ideal for high-viscosity formulas or high-volume nutritional needs, significantly reducing the frequency of tube occlusions (clogs).

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a discrete and comfortable alternative to traditional long tubes. This design reduces the risk of the tube being snagged on clothing or accidentally displaced.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for durability and soft contact with the stoma site.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal end is weighted with tungsten to help maintain the tube's position within the small bowel and prevent retrograde migration into the stomach.

  • Internal Retention Balloon: A high-quality silicone balloon (7–10 mL) provides secure internal retention and is easier to replace than non-balloon "mushroom" style tubes.

  • Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve located in the "button" head prevents the leakage of intestinal contents when the extension set is disconnected.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: Features a built-in radiopaque stripe and tip for clear visualization under X-ray or fluoroscopy to monitor and verify proper placement.
