Yes, the Cardinal Health Argyle Stomach Tubes are constructed from clear, thermosensitive PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). This material is specifically designed to soften and become more pliable when it reaches body temperature, which may facilitate easier insertion and enhance patient comfort during medical procedures.

Yes, the Argyle Stomach Tubes feature precision depth markings to ensure accurate placement during gastric procedures.

The markings are clearly visible at the following points, measured from the distal end of the tube:

• 18 inches
• 22 inches
• 26 inches
• 30 inches

This accurate placement is further supported by the integrated X-ray opaque Sentinel Line, which allows for visual confirmation using imaging techniques.

The Cardinal Health Argyle Levin Type stomach tubes are offered in three different French sizes (FR) to accommodate various clinical needs:

• 12 FR
• 16 FR
• 18 FR
