Key Features
ENFit Connector: Equipped with the ISO 80369-3 (ENFit) hub, providing a secure, locking connection that prevents accidental misconnections with IV lines or other non-enteral devices—critical for neonatal safety.
4.0 French Ultra-Slim Bore: Ideal for the smallest preterm infants (ELBW/VLBW), allowing for nutritional delivery while minimizing airway obstruction and discomfort.
Long-Term Indwelling: Validated for safe use for up to 30 days, which reduces the frequency of traumatic re-insertions in fragile neonates.
Polyurethane Construction: The material is firm for controlled insertion but softens at body temperature to conform to the infant's anatomy, reducing the risk of internal tissue irritation.
Anti-Bacterial Hub Design: Features a "bottomless" hub (no internal floor) to prevent formula or breast milk from pooling, which significantly inhibits bacterial colonization.
Wave-Pattern Tethered Plug: Includes an integrated closure plug with a unique wave design that facilitates airflow while capped, further discouraging bacterial growth.
Placement Monitoring: Equipped with an encapsulated radiopaque stripe for X-ray verification and bold centimeter markings for daily monitoring of the tube's position.
