Description

Key Features

  • ENFit (NeoConnect) Connector: Features the ISO 80369-3 compliant threaded locking connector. This enhances safety by ensuring the tube only connects to enteral systems, preventing accidental misconnection with IV lines.

  • Bacteria-Resistant Open Hub: Designed with NeoMed’s signature "bottomless" hub. By removing internal floors and crevices where milk or formula can pool, it significantly reduces the risk of bacterial biofilm development.

  • Open Distal Tip: Includes a smooth, open-ended distal tip with three precision-drilled, offset side ports. This configuration maximizes nutrient flow and eliminates "dead zones" where bacteria often colonize in traditional closed-tip designs.

  • Placement Verification: Equipped with a semi-encapsulated orange radiopaque stripe for clear X-ray visualization and bold centimeter markings to verify and monitor insertion depth.

  • PVC Construction: Provides a slightly firmer feel than polyurethane or silicone, which can assist in easier insertion for certain clinical scenarios.

  • Tethered Wave-Pattern Plug: Includes a securely attached closure plug with a unique wave design that allows airflow through the hub to reduce moisture while keeping the internal lumen protected.
