Frequently asked questions
Is tube placement confirmed by X-ray?
<p>Yes, safe and accurate placement can be confirmed radiologically. The Argyle Levin Type Stomach Tubes are designed with patient safety as a priority:</p>
<ul>
<li>They feature an <strong>X-ray opaque Sentinel Line</strong> and a Sentinel Eye. These features allow clinicians to verify the tube’s exact location using fluoroscopy or other imaging techniques.</li>
<li>The tubes are constructed from <strong>clear, thermosensitive PVC</strong>. This high-quality material softens slightly when exposed to body temperature, enhancing patient comfort during indwelling use.</li>

</ul>
Does the tube material soften for easier insertion?
<p>Yes, the Cardinal Health Argyle Stomach Tubes are constructed from <strong>clear, thermosensitive PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)</strong>. 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.</p>
What precise depth markings are on the tube?
<p>Yes, the Argyle Stomach Tubes feature precision depth markings to ensure accurate placement during gastric procedures.</p>
<p>The markings are clearly visible at the following points, measured from the <strong>distal end</strong> of the tube:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>18 inches</strong></li>
<li><strong>22 inches</strong></li>
<li><strong>26 inches</strong></li>
<li><strong>30 inches</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>This accurate placement is further supported by the integrated <strong>X-ray opaque Sentinel Line</strong>, which allows for visual confirmation using imaging techniques.</p>
