Key Features
ENFit (NeoConnect) Connector: Features the ISO 80369-3 compliant threaded locking connector. This safety standard ensures the tube only connects to enteral syringes and pump sets, preventing accidental misconnection with IV lines.
Medium Length (60 cm): Provides extended reach for larger infants or pediatric patients where a standard 40 cm tube is too short to reach the stomach effectively.
Ultra-Soft Silicone Construction: Offers maximum flexibility and biocompatibility. Silicone is the preferred material for patients with sensitive mucosal tissue to minimize the risk of irritation or trauma during long-term use.
Bacteria-Resistant Open Hub: Designed with NeoMed’s signature "bottomless" hub that eliminates internal floors or crevices. This prevents breast milk or formula from pooling, significantly reducing the risk of bacterial biofilm formation.
Open Distal Tip: Includes a smooth, open-ended distal tip with three precision-drilled, offset side ports. This maximizes nutrient flow and eliminates "dead zones" where bacteria often colonize in closed-tip designs.
Placement Verification: Equipped with a semi-encapsulated orange radiopaque stripe for clear X-ray visualization and bold centimeter markings to verify and monitor insertion depth.
Tethered Wave-Pattern Plug: Includes a securely attached closure plug with a unique wave design that allows airflow through the hub to reduce moisture while keeping the internal lumen protected.
