Description
Key Features
NeoConnect EO Connector: A purple-coded, friction-fit (slip) safety connection that accepts standard oral-tip syringes. Its design prevents accidental misconnection with IV systems.
Long Reach: The 90 cm length is specifically engineered for patients who require a longer tube than standard 40 cm or 60 cm lengths to ensure proper gastric placement.
Bacteria-Resistant Open Hub: Features the signature "bottomless" hub design. By eliminating internal floors and hidden crevices where milk or formula can pool, it significantly reduces the risk of bacterial biofilm.
Open Distal Tip: Includes a smooth, open-ended tip with three precision-drilled side ports. This configuration maximizes nutrient flow and eliminates "dead zones" common in traditional closed-tip designs.
Placement Verification: Equipped with a semi-encapsulated purple radiopaque stripe for clear X-ray visualization and bold centimeter markings to verify and monitor insertion depth.
Durable Polyurethane (PUR): Offers superior durability and kink resistance compared to PVC, supporting a reliable indwell time of up to 30 days.
Tethered Wave-Pattern Plug: Includes a securely attached closure plug with a unique wave-pattern that allows airflow through the hub to reduce moisture while keeping the internal lumen protected.
