Key Features
ENFit® Safety Connectors: The ports are designed with threads that require specific ENFit® extension sets and syringes, ensuring a secure, leak-proof connection and enhancing patient safety.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the patient's skin at the stoma site. This makes the tube more comfortable, discreet under clothing, and less prone to accidental dislodgement.
Dual-Port Functionality: * Jejunal Port: For delivery of formula and fluids into the small bowel.
Gastric Port: For stomach venting, suctioning, or medication delivery.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The jejunal end is weighted and features a radiopaque stripe, which helps the tube stay in position and allows for clear visualization during X-ray (fluoroscopy) placement.
Inflatable Retention Balloon: A medical-grade silicone balloon holds the device securely inside the stomach.
