Medicina 6CH ENFit Polyurethane Nasogastric Feeding Tube Sterile 40-160cm

Deliver safe, reliable, and precise enteral nutrition with the Medicina 6CH ENFit Polyurethane Nasogastric (NG) Feeding Tube. Engineered to meet the highest clinical safety standards, this sterile, fine-bore feeding tube is an essential tool for healthcare professionals needing to administer nutritional feeds, flush lines, deliver vital medications, and safely aspirate stomach contents. Available in versatile lengths ranging from 40cm to 160cm, this 6CH tube is expertly scaled to provide optimal comfort for pediatric patients or adults requiring a smaller French size.

Engineered for Long-Term Patient Comfort

Minimizing patient trauma and discomfort is a top priority in enteral care. Unlike traditional PVC tubes that harden quickly and require frequent, distressing replacements, the Medicina NG tube is constructed from premium, medical-grade polyurethane. This advanced material remains incredibly soft, flexible, and kink-resistant, allowing it to be safely maintained in place for up to 90 days (subject to hospital guidelines regarding nasal erosion and ventilated patients).

To further protect delicate mucosal tissues, the tube features a specially designed rounded distal tip that ensures a smooth, atraumatic insertion through the nasal passage and esophagus.

Uncompromising Safety and Precision Placement

Accurate gastric placement and connection security are critical to patient safety. This NG tube features a full-length radio-opaque stripe and precise centimetre markings, providing clinicians with maximum visibility during radiographic confirmation to guarantee exact depth and positioning.

Furthermore, the system is fully ENFit compliant (ISO 80369-3). The integrated ENFit connector strictly prevents dangerous misconnections with intravenous (IV) lines, ensuring the tube can only be connected to dedicated enteral feeding sets and syringes. A secure tethered cap is also included to maintain strict sterility when the tube is not in active use.
