Description

  • Orange
  • Bottomless hub design eliminates a floor where HBM and formula can accumulate, fostering bacterial growth
  • Closure plug wave pattern allows air flow through the hub, which helps reduce bacterial formation
  • Centimeter markings to at least 32 cm on all feeding tubes
  • Plugged-style hub closures lend to less bacterial growth than hub closures designed without the ability to plug the lumen or clean hidden reservoirs, threads, caps, or ridges
  • Encapsulated orange radiopaque stripe and bold insertion markings at each centimeter help confirm placement
  • Unique tethered plug closure for better protection from exposure to ambient air
  • Open distal tip with no sharp edges or hidden cavities eliminates residual colonization associated with closed tip feeding tubes
  • Soft medical grade polymers support quality developmental care and improved outcomes
  • Cost-effective solution providing indwell time up to 30 days, minimizing need for additional tube placements
  • Three offset side port holes are precision drilled to provide smooth edges
  • This product is intended for use in neonatal and pediatric patients to provide nutrition via nasal or oral gastric placement and is not intended for use beyond 30 days

Frequently asked questions

How long can this tube safely stay in place?

This tube is designed for long-term use and can safely remain in place for up to 30 days before needing replacement.

Does this tube help prevent bacterial growth?

Yes. It features an advanced bottomless hub design and a specialized plug-style closure. This eliminates hidden reservoirs where formula or breast milk could collect, significantly reducing the potential for bacterial growth.

Is the material safe for sensitive neonatal patients?

Absolutely. The tube is constructed from soft, medical-grade polyurethane, which is designed to be gentle for neonatal and pediatric care while maintaining durability.

How do I verify the tube placement?

For accurate placement, the tube is equipped with:

  • Clear centimeter markings (up to 32 cm) for visual verification.
  • An encapsulated radiopaque stripe for clear identification during imaging procedures.
Are there any risks of sharp edges at the tip?

No. The distal tip is specifically designed to be open and free of sharp edges, ensuring smooth insertion and reducing the risk of tissue trauma during use.

Does this include the standard ENFit connector?

Yes, this product comes with an integrated ENFit connector, ensuring it is compatible with modern standardized feeding systems.

What is the purpose of the three side ports?

The tube features three precision-drilled offset side port holes at the distal end, which help ensure consistent flow and reduce the risk of the tube becoming obstructed.

Is this tube intended for oral or nasal use?

The NeoMed feeding tube is versatile and approved for both nasal or oral gastric placement, depending on the clinical requirements of the patient.

How does the hub design prevent milk accumulation?

The bottomless hub lacks the internal ridges and deep reservoirs found in standard connectors. This, combined with the unique wave-pattern plug, prevents formula or breast milk from getting trapped and stagnant.

Is this product sterile upon arrival?

Yes, this feeding tube is provided sterile and is ready for clinical use, ensuring adherence to hygiene standards right out of the packaging.
