Yes. This device is specifically engineered for patient comfort by featuring a 37% lower profile external bolster than standard options. This reduces bulk and prevents the hard edges that can cause irritation or accidental snagging.
Is the material safe and gentle on skin?
Absolutely. The MiniONE is constructed from high-quality medical-grade silicone. This material is chosen for its softness, flexibility, and ability to reduce skin irritation, ensuring better patient tolerance over long-term use.
Is it easy for caregivers to see at night?
Yes, the device incorporates Glo Green technology. This feature provides enhanced visibility, making it much easier and safer for caregivers to manage feeding during nighttime hours.

The device features a unique tapered shaft transition where the tube meets the external bolster. This design promotes a superior, snug seal against the stoma site, which helps prevent leakage and minimizes trauma to the surrounding tissue.

Is the material durable for long-term use?
The medical-grade silicone is selected specifically for its balance of flexibility and durability. It is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use while maintaining its structural integrity and remaining gentle on the stoma site.
Is the external bolster easy to clean?

Is the tube sterile upon arrival?
