Description

Key Features

  • 8.0 French Bore: Provides a larger internal diameter compared to standard neonatal tubes, facilitating the delivery of more viscous formulas, breast milk with additives, or medications.

  • 40 cm Short Length: Optimized for infants and small children to prevent excessive external looping and to maintain accurate delivery with minimal "dead space."

  • Polyurethane Construction: The material is firm for controlled insertion 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 reduces 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: Engineered with a "bottomless" hub architecture to prevent the accumulation of milk or formula, inhibiting bacterial growth at the connection site.

  • Wave-Pattern Tethered Plug: Includes an integrated closure plug with a unique wave design that facilitates airflow while capped, further discouraging bacterial colonization.

  • Placement Monitoring: Equipped with an encapsulated radiopaque stripe for X-ray confirmation and bold centimeter markings to monitor and maintain accurate placement.
