$183.95

Description

ENFit® Safety Connector:
- Incorporates the ISO 80369-3 standardized locking hub to eliminate accidental misconnections with IV or respiratory lines.
- Ensures a secure, leak-free connection for enteral feeding and medication.
Extra-Long Reach (105 cm):
- Designed for larger infants or pediatric patients requiring a longer tube for nasogastric or oralgastric placement.
Polyurethane Material Advantages:
- Insertion Control: Stays firm during insertion for easier navigation but softens at body temperature to conform to the patient's anatomy.
- Flow Efficiency: High-strength walls allow for a larger internal bore compared to silicone, reducing the risk of clogging.
Advanced Infection Control:
- Bottomless Hub Design: Eliminates "floors" or hidden reservoirs where breast milk or formula can pool and foster bacterial growth.
- Wave-Pattern Tethered Plug: The integrated cap allows for airflow while sealed, keeping the hub dry and inhibiting bacterial colonization.
Placement & Monitoring:
- Radiopaque Stripe: Full-length encapsulated stripe (often orange or purple depending on specific SKU) for high visibility under X-ray.
- Centimeter Markings: Bold insertion markings at each centimeter to help clinicians verify placement and monitor for tube migration.
Atraumatic Distal Tip:
- Open-tip design with no sharp edges to minimize mucosal trauma.
- Features three precision-drilled, offset side portholes to maximize nutritional flow.
