Nasogastric/Nasointestinal Feeding Tube, 12 Fr, 20-5432

$317.95

Description

12 French Large-Bore Diameter: Provides the widest internal lumen in this series, making it the preferred choice for thick (high-viscosity) formulas and frequent administration of crushed medications.
10-Gram Tungsten Weight: Features the heaviest weight available at the distal tip. This utilizes gravity and peristalsis to help the tube migrate through the pylorus and into the duodenum or jejunum.
43-Inch (109 cm) Adult Length: The standard clinical length for reaching the small bowel in adult patients.
Integrated Insertion Stylet: Includes a pre-inserted stainless steel guide wire. The stylet is necessary to provide the column strength needed to push the tube through the gastrointestinal tract; it is removed once placement is verified.
Universal / Legacy Connector: Equipped with the traditional stepped ("Christmas tree") connector.
Note: If you require the purple ISO-standard safety version, the ENFit® part number is 40-5432.
ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: Stronger and more acid-resistant than silicone. This material allows for thinner walls, which maximizes the internal diameter relative to the French size.
Water-Activated Lubricant: The tip and internal lumen are coated with a lubricant that becomes highly slippery when wet, facilitating smoother insertion and easier stylet removal.
