Description

Key Features

  • 5 French Ultra-Thin Diameter: The smallest standard diameter available for weighted tubes, providing maximum comfort and minimizing the risk of nasal irritation in neonatal and infant patients.

  • 1.5-Gram Tungsten Weight: A lightweight bolus designed to keep the tube tip anchored in the gastric floor, preventing displacement during infant movement or reflux episodes.

  • 22-Inch (55 cm) Neonatal Length: Specifically sized for neonates and young infants to reach the stomach without excessive external slack that could be snagged or pulled.

  • Integrated Insertion Stylet: Includes a pre-inserted stainless steel guide wire to provide the necessary rigidity for placement. The stylet is removed and discarded once placement is confirmed via X-ray.

  • Universal / Legacy Connector: Features the traditional stepped ("Christmas tree") connector.

    Note: If your facility uses the purple ISO-standard safety connector, the ENFit® version is 40-9225.

  • ULTRA-LITE* Polyurethane: Stronger and more durable than silicone, allowing for the thinnest possible walls to maintain a functional internal lumen for breast milk or infant formula.

  • C-19* Water-Activated Lubricant: An internal and external coating that becomes highly slippery when wet, facilitating a smoother insertion and easier removal of the stylet.
