Feeding
The feeding catheter is used in gastroenterology for enteral feeding and administration of medicinal products into the stomach cavity.
Outer diameter D, CH – from 4 to 36, with connector color coding according to international standards.
Length L, 100-2000 mm.
Tube material: transparent thermoplastic implant-grade non-toxic medical PVC, phthalate-free.
With/without tube marking.
Tube with/without radiopaque stripe.
The feeding catheter is made of transparent thermoplastic implant-grade nontoxic polyvinyl chloride.
The thermoplastic material softens under the temperature of surrounding tissues.
It has a closed rounded distal end, ensuring painless atraumatic insertion.
Special positioning of the lateral openings reduces the risk of “dumping syndrome”.
The Luer-type connector is adapted for use with automatic dosing devices.
The hermetically closing connector cap (designed for repeated opening and closing) prevents liquid leakage and protects the catheter contents from infection.
Smooth surface ensures easy insertion. The lumen does not collapse when twisted.
A radiopaque stripe (X-ray contrast line) allows the catheter position to be determined by X-ray.
The tube marking (metric scale) allows control of insertion depth, preventing complications and improving convenience for medical personnel.
