Description

The Avanos PFTS4.0P-EO is a 4.0 French, 40 cm polyurethane enteral feeding tube from the NeoMed line.

This model features the NeoConnect EO (Enteral Only) connector, which is a friction-fit safety connector. It is designed to be compatible with oral-tip syringes while remaining purple-coded and physically incompatible with IV systems to prevent accidental misconnections.

Key Features

  • NeoConnect EO Connector: Provides a safety-focused connection that accepts oral syringes. This is often used in facilities that have not fully transitioned to the locking ENFit (ISO 80369-3) standard but still require enteral-only safety.

  • Bacteria-Resistant Open Hub: The signature "bottomless" hub design eliminates floors and hidden crevices. This prevents the pooling of breast milk or formula, significantly reducing the risk of bacterial growth.

  • Open Distal Tip: Features a smooth, open-ended tip with three precision-drilled, offset side ports. This maximizes flow and eliminates "dead zones" where bacteria can colonize in closed-tip tubes.

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

  • Polyurethane (PUR) Material: Offers superior durability and kink resistance compared to PVC, allowing the tube to remain in place for up to 30 days.

  • Tethered Wave-Pattern Plug: The attached closure plug allows airflow through the hub to help reduce moisture buildup while keeping the lumen protected.
