Description
The 12 French diameter is a "large-bore" option for the 36-inch length, making it ideal for adolescents or small adults who require a tube capable of handling thicker formulas or crushed medications without clogging.
Key Features
12 French Large Bore: This is one of the widest diameters available in the 36-inch pediatric/small adult length. The larger internal lumen significantly reduces the risk of occlusion, especially when administering high-protein formulas or multiple medications.
Integrated Insertion Stylet: Comes with a pre-inserted stainless steel guide wire. This provides the necessary rigidity for the clinician to navigate the tube accurately into the stomach. The stylet is removed once placement is confirmed.
ENFit Safety Connector: Features the purple ISO 80369-3 standard connector. This design prevents accidental misconnections with IV lines, ensuring that only enteral syringes and feeding sets can be attached.
Non-Weighted (Clear) Tip: The tube is non-weighted, making it more comfortable for the patient and allowing for easier "blind" insertion by clinicians who prefer the feel of a non-weighted bolus.
ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: Medical-grade polyurethane construction allows for thinner walls than silicone or PVC, maximizing flow rates while remaining biocompatible and resistant to gastric acid for up to 30 days.
