Key Features
ENFit® Safety Connector: Features a purple, threaded ISO 80369-3 compliant hub. This ensures a secure, leak-proof lock with ENFit® syringes and extension sets, making it physically impossible to connect to non-enteral systems like IV lines.
8.0 French Diameter: A large-bore lumen that is ideal for delivering thicker nutrition or performing efficient gastric decompression (venting) in larger neonates or pediatric patients.
PVC (Vinyl) Construction: Firmer than silicone or polyurethane, providing better rigidity for easier passage through the nasal or oral pathway. It is medical-grade, DEHP-free, and BPA-free.
Anti-Colonization Design:
Open Distal Tip: Features a rounded, open end with three offset side ports. These precision-drilled (not cut) ports ensure smooth edges that protect delicate mucosal tissue and eliminate "hidden cavities" where bacteria can colonize.
Open Hub Design: The hub is "bottomless," which prevents breast milk or formula from pooling in internal crevices, reducing the risk of bacterial growth.
Radiopaque Visibility: Includes a semi-encapsulated orange stripe that runs the entire 90 cm length for clear X-ray verification of placement.
Insertion Monitoring: Bold centimeter markings (up to at least 32 cm) assist in accurate initial depth measurement and ongoing monitoring for tube migration.
