Frequently asked questions
Does the low profile design help reduce skin irritation?
Yes. The device features a 37% lower profile external bolster compared to standard devices. By sitting closer to the body and utilizing soft, flexible medical-grade silicone, it significantly reduces the bulk that typically leads to skin irritation or pressure sores.
Is this tube kit ENFit compatible?
Yes, this kit is fully ENFit compatible, ensuring it meets modern safety standards for enteral feeding connections.
Will this help prevent leakage around the stoma site?
The device is engineered with a tapered transition from the shaft to the external bolster. This design ensures a superior, secure seal against the skin to help prevent leakage of gastric contents.
Are there features to help with nighttime feedings?
Yes, the kit includes “Glo Green” components, which are designed for better visibility in low-light conditions, making nighttime feeding sessions easier to manage.
Is the material safe for sensitive skin?
The tube is constructed from medical-grade silicone, which is inherently soft, flexible, and gentle. This material is specifically chosen to conform to the patient’s anatomy, minimizing trauma and the risk of skin breakdown during long-term use.
How does the flexible silicone benefit the user?
Unlike stiffer materials, the high-quality, flexible silicone conforms to the patient’s body. This flexibility allows the device to move with the patient, which reduces the chance of it catching on clothing and helps prevent pressure-related skin irritation.
