Description

Key Features

  • 40 cm Length (Short): The standard NICU length, designed to minimize external tubing and "dead space" for the smallest patients.

  • Thermal Softening Polyurethane: Firm at room temperature to provide control during insertion, but softens at body temperature to improve patient comfort. It is validated for a long-term indwell time of up to 30 days.

  • Legacy "EO" Hub: Features the signature orange NeoMed* connector. This is a non-threaded, "Enteral Only" slip-style hub designed to prevent accidental misconnections with IV lines, though it requires an adapter to connect to modern purple ENFitĀ® systems.

  • Anti-Colonization Design:

    • Open Distal Tip: Features a rounded, smooth open end with three precision-drilled side ports. This "smooth-flow" design avoids sharp edges and eliminates "dead zones" where bacteria can colonize.

    • Aseptic Hub & Plug: The "bottomless" hub prevents breast milk or formula from pooling in internal crevices, and the unique tethered plug closure helps protect the lumen from ambient air.

  • Radiopaque Placement Verification: A semi-encapsulated orange stripe runs the entire length of the tube for high visibility under X-ray.

  • Bold Depth Markings: Centimeter markings help clinicians measure insertion depth precisely and provide a clear reference for monitoring potential tube migration.
