Key Features
ENFit Safety Hub: Features the purple-coded, threaded ISO 80369-3 compliant connector. This design ensures a secure, leak-proof lock and provides a physical barrier against accidental misconnections to non-enteral systems such as IV ports or respiratory lines.
40 cm Length (Short): Specifically designed for neonates and infants to minimize external tubing and reduce "dead space" between the hub and the stomach.
Firm PVC Construction: The material's natural firmness facilitates easier passage through the nasal or oral cavity. It is medical-grade, DEHP-free, and BPA-free.
Anti-Colonization Design:
Open Distal Tip: Features a rounded, open end with three precision-drilled side ports. This "smooth-flow" design minimizes irritation to the gastric mucosa and eliminates stagnant pockets where bacteria can hide.
Aseptic Hub: The "bottomless" hub design prevents the accumulation of nutrition in internal crevices, keeping the connection site cleaner.
Radiopaque Placement Verification: Includes a semi-encapsulated orange stripe that runs the entire length of the tube, ensuring high visibility under X-ray for placement confirmation.
Bold Depth Markings: High-contrast centimeter markings assist clinicians in initial depth measurement and provide a clear way to monitor for tube migration.
