Key Features

  • Maximum Diameter (24 Fr): The wide 24 French lumen is designed to accommodate thicker, high-viscosity formulas and high-volume nutritional delivery with the least amount of resistance, significantly reducing the risk of tube clogging.

  • Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a discrete and comfortable alternative to traditional long tubes. This design reduces the risk of accidental displacement or "pull-outs" during daily activities.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone that is soft and flexible, maximizing patient comfort and durability.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal end of the 30 cm jejunal segment is weighted with tungsten to help maintain the tube's position within the small bowel and prevent retrograde migration into the stomach.

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

  • Inflatable Retention Balloon: A 7–10 mL silicone balloon provides secure internal retention. Unlike non-balloon devices, this allows for easier, less traumatic replacement.

  • Radiopaque Verification: A barium sulfate stripe and the weighted tip are visible under X-ray or fluoroscopy, allowing for precise placement verification.
