Key Features
8 French Diameter: A versatile mid-range size for pediatrics. It is thin enough for comfort but wide enough to accommodate most standard formulas and medications without frequent clogging.
3-Gram Weighted Tip: The distal end features a small weight to keep the tube "down" in the gastric pool, reducing the risk of the tube coiling in the esophagus or being displaced by a cough or gag reflex.
Anti-IV Connector (Yellow): Includes the proprietary yellow safety hub. This design is specifically engineered to be incompatible with standard Luer-lock or IV equipment to prevent accidental misconnections.
Note: This is a Non-ENFit model. If your facility uses the purple ENFit standard, you would require SKU 40-1368.
Flow-Through Stylet: Comes pre-inserted with a stylet that allows for the injection of water or lubricant to ease the insertion process. The stylet is removed once placement is confirmed.
Polyurethane Material: Offers high tensile strength and a larger internal lumen compared to silicone, which is essential for maintaining flow in small-diameter tubes.
Clog-Resistant Tip: The "Anti-Clog" bolus at the end of the tube helps prevent the accumulation of formula and medication residue.
