Key Features
ENFit (NeoConnect) Connector: Features a standardized ISO 80369-3 compliant threaded locking connector to prevent accidental misconnections with IV or other non-enteral systems.
Bacteria-Resistant Open Hub: Designed with a "bottomless" hub that eliminates internal floors or crevices where breast milk or formula can pool and foster bacterial growth.
Open Distal Tip: Includes a smooth, open-ended tip with three precision-drilled, offset side ports. This configuration maximizes flow and eliminates the "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 at least 32 cm) to verify and monitor insertion depth.
Polyurethane Construction: Medical-grade PUR provides superior durability and kink resistance compared to PVC, allowing the tube to remain in place for up to 30 days.
Tethered Wave-Pattern Plug: Includes a securely attached closure plug with a unique wave-pattern that allows airflow through the hub to reduce moisture while keeping the internal lumen protected.
