Frequently asked questions
Is this tube comfortable for long-term wear?
Yes, this kit is specifically engineered for long-term comfort. It features a 37% lower profile external bolster that lies flat against the body, helping to prevent snagging on clothing and reducing site trauma.
Does it cause skin irritation at the site?
The device is constructed from premium medical-grade silicone, which is soft and flexible. This design is intentionally created to be gentle on the skin, significantly reducing the risk of stoma irritation compared to more rigid feeding tubes.

How does it prevent leaks around the site?
The tube features a tapered transition from the shaft to the external bolster. This precise design ensures a superior external seal against the stomach, which is specifically intended to minimize leakage.
Does the external bolster have sharp edges?
No, the external bolster is designed to be wide, flat, and smooth. It sits flush against the skin specifically to avoid sharp edges and to provide a low-profile, non-obtrusive fit under clothing.
