Frequently asked questions
Does this kit include everything needed for initial use?
Yes, this is a complete clinical kit. It includes the MIC-KEY feeding tube, an insertion stylet, lubricant, gauze, two different extension sets (continuous and bolus), and two types of syringes (6 mL and 35 mL) to ensure you have all essential components for immediate application.
Is this tube compatible with standard ENFit systems?
Absolutely. This MIC-KEY tube is fully equipped with standardized ENFit connectors, ensuring a secure, leak-free, and safe connection for both your nutritional delivery and medication administration.
How does the low-profile design help with daily comfort?
The low-profile design allows the tube to sit flush against the skin. This significantly reduces the tube’s protrusion, which minimizes the risk of snagging on clothing and provides a more discreet, comfortable experience for the patient during daily activities.
Is the material safe for long-term use?
Yes, it is manufactured from high-quality, medical-grade silicone. This material is chosen for its durability, biocompatibility, and flexibility, making it well-suited for long-term enteral nutrition therapy as directed by your healthcare professional.
Are both bolus and continuous feed sets included?
Yes, the kit comes with both types of extension sets: a 12-inch Continuous Feed Extension Set and a 12-inch Bolus Feed Extension Set, both featuring ENFit connectors to accommodate different feeding schedules.
What is the specific size of this tube?
This model is a 24 Fr. tube with a 3.5 cm length. Please ensure this size matches the specific requirements prescribed by your healthcare provider before ordering.
Can medical staff easily verify the tube's position?
Yes. The tube features an integrated radiopaque stripe running its length. This is a critical safety feature that allows for clear, accurate verification of the tube’s placement and status during medical imaging.
How is the tube held in place internally?
The device is secured using an internal retention balloon. Once inserted, this balloon is inflated to keep the tube safely and correctly positioned against the internal stomach wall.
Is the connection system secure?
Yes, it utilizes a reliable lock-and-key connection mechanism. This, combined with the standardized ENFit design, is engineered to prevent accidental disconnects during use.
Is the tube sterile upon arrival?
Yes, this product is supplied as a sterile medical device in a molded tray, ensuring it is ready for clinical application straight out of the packaging.
