PU Feeding Tube Purple 6.5Fr 40cm, PFTS6.5P-EO

$186.95

Description

6.5 French Bore: Provides a larger internal diameter than standard neonatal tubes, facilitating the delivery of more viscous formulas or medications while remaining small enough for infant comfort.
40 cm Short Length: Specifically sized for neonates and small infants to minimize "dead space" and prevent the hazards of excess external tubing.
Polyurethane Durability: The material is firm for easier insertion and navigation but softens at body temperature to conform to the patient's anatomy, reducing the risk of internal tissue irritation.
30-Day Indwell: Validated for safe use for up to 30 days, which minimizes the frequency of traumatic tube replacements.
Enteral Only (EO) Hub: Features a legacy non-threaded hub compatible with traditional oral and enteral syringes. It is not an ENFit connector.
Anti-Bacterial Hub Design: Features a "bottomless" hub (no internal floor) to prevent formula or breast milk from pooling, which inhibits bacterial growth at the connection site.
Wave-Pattern Tethered Plug: Includes an integrated closure plug with a unique wave design that allows for airflow while capped, further discouraging bacterial colonization.
Placement Monitoring: Equipped with an encapsulated radiopaque stripe for X-ray verification and bold centimeter markings for daily monitoring of the tube's position.
