Frequently asked questions
Is the material safe for long-term use?
Yes, this tube is constructed from high-quality, medical-grade silicone. This material is chosen for its biocompatibility, flexibility, and durability, making it suitable for long-term enteral nutrition requirements.
Does the tube stay securely in place?
Absolutely. The device utilizes an inflatable internal retention balloon that holds the tube safely and correctly in position against the stomach wall, minimizing the risk of accidental displacement.
Is it comfortable for daily wear?
The low-profile design is specifically engineered for comfort. Because the device sits flush against the skin, it is significantly more discreet and less cumbersome than traditional, longer feeding tubes, allowing for better mobility and ease under clothing.
Does this kit include everything needed for insertion?
Yes, this is a complete clinical kit designed for immediate setup. It includes:
- The MIC-KEY feeding tube
- An insertion stylet
- Water-soluble lubricant
- Essential syringes (6 mL and 35 mL)
- Gauze pads
- Both continuous and bolus extension sets
Can I use this for both bolus and continuous feeding?
Yes, the kit is highly versatile. It includes both a 12-inch continuous feed extension set and a 12-inch bolus feed extension set, allowing you to switch between feeding methods as required by your clinical plan.
Is the tube visible during medical imaging?
Yes, the tube is manufactured with a built-in radiopaque stripe. This feature allows medical professionals to confirm proper placement and verify the tube’s position accurately using standard imaging techniques.
How is the extension set connected?
The system features a secure lock-and-key connection mechanism. This ensures that the extension sets remain firmly attached during the feeding process and prevents accidental disconnection.
Is the distal tip designed for patient safety?
The device features a recessed distal tip. This design refinement is intended to improve functional performance for medical professionals during insertion and ongoing management.
Is the product delivered in a sterile state?
Yes, this product is 100% sterile and factory new, ensuring it meets strict clinical hygiene standards for patient safety immediately upon opening.
What are the specific measurements of this kit?
