Key Features
Deep Jejunal Access: The 30 cm tail is ideal for preventing "retrograde migration" (the tube flipping back into the stomach), which is a common complication in patients with high gastric motility.
Simultaneous Dual-Port Function:
Gastric Port (White): Used for venting gas or draining stomach contents to alleviate pressure and nausea.
Jejunal Port (Green): Specifically for continuous enteral nutrition directly into the small bowel.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The end of the 30 cm segment is weighted with tungsten to assist natural peristalsis in maintaining the tube’s position distal to the pylorus.
Independent Anti-Reflux Valves: Both ports contain internal valves that prevent the leakage of gastric and intestinal fluids when the extension sets are disconnected.
Full-Length Radiopacity: A radiopaque stripe runs the entire length of the tube, allowing clinicians to verify the exact location of the 30 cm tip using X-ray or fluoroscopy.
