Kangaroo Nasogastric Feeding Tube Weighted Dobbhoff Tip – The Original Safety Leader
The Kangaroo Nasogastric Feeding Tube Weighted Dobbhoff Tip is engineered for clinicians who require a reliable, high-performance solution for gastric and duodenal access. Known as the “Original” Dobbhoff tube, this device is constructed from medical-grade, radiopaque polyurethane, which offers superior kink-resistance and longevity compared to standard PVC tubing. Sized at 12 Fr (4.0 mm) with a 43″ (109 cm) length, it is ideal for adult patients requiring short-to-medium term enteral support.
Advanced Safety & ENFit® Integration
In compliance with global safety standards, the Kangaroo Nasogastric Feeding Tube Weighted Dobbhoff Tip features an ENFit® connection system. This dual-port enteral connector is specifically designed to be incompatible with Luer lock or IV equipment, directly addressing the JCAHO Tubing Misconnections Sentinel Event Alert. The high-visibility purple color clearly identifies the line for enteral use only, ensuring that nutrition and medication reach the gastrointestinal tract safely.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Large Bolus Weighted Tip: The specialized Dobbhoff tip is weighted to facilitate easier passage through the nasopharyngeal anatomy and helps maintain the desired placement within the stomach or duodenum.
-
Integrated Flow-Through Stylet: Comes with a pre-inserted rigid stylet that provides necessary support during insertion. Once the stylet is removed, the tube becomes MRI Conditional, allowing for diagnostic flexibility.
-
Radiopaque Polyurethane Material: The entire tube is easily visible under X-ray or fluoroscopy, allowing for rapid and definitive confirmation of the distal tip’s position.
-
Precision Depth Markings: Clearly printed centimeter (CM) markings enable healthcare providers to monitor for tube migration and ensure the device remains at the correct depth.
-
DEHP-Free & Patient Safe: Formulated without DEHP or natural rubber latex, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and supporting biocompatibility for sensitive patients.
-
Rigid Port Design: The durable rigid port ensures a secure interface with feeding pump sets and syringes, preventing leaks and messy disconnects.

The Gold Standard in Enteral Access
Choosing the Kangaroo Nasogastric Feeding Tube Weighted Dobbhoff Tip means utilizing a product backed by decades of clinical trust. The polyurethane material resists gastric acid and remains soft once inside the body, enhancing patient comfort during continuous feeding. By combining the weighted tip for stable placement with the ENFit® system for absolute connection safety, this tube remains a vital tool in modern critical and long-term care settings.
Clinical Note: Always verify the location of the radiopaque tip via radiological imaging or institutional protocol before initiating the first feed. The stylet must be completely removed immediately following successful placement.
