Description

Key Features

  • 40 cm Length (Short): The standard "Short" length designed for neonatal and infant patients to minimize excess external tubing.

  • Ultra-Soft Silicone Construction: Provides maximum biocompatibility and flexibility, making it ideal for patients with highly sensitive mucosal tissues. It is validated for a long-term indwell time of up to 30 days.

  • Legacy "EO" Hub: Features the signature orange NeoMed* connector. It uses a non-threaded, slip-style "Enteral Only" connection designed for legacy syringes and requires an adapter to work with 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 eliminates the sharp edges and "dead zones" where bacteria often colonize in traditional closed-tip tubes.

    • Aseptic Hub & Plug: The "bottomless" hub design lacks internal crevices where breast milk or formula can pool, and the tethered wave-pattern plug closure helps keep the hub clean.

  • Radiopaque Placement Verification: Includes a semi-encapsulated orange stripe that runs the entire 40 cm length for clear visibility under X-ray.

  • Accuracy & Monitoring: Bold centimeter markings (to at least 32 cm) assist clinicians in precise initial depth measurement and ongoing monitoring for tube migration.
