GASTROSTOMY FEED TUBE W/ Y-PORT 18FR

GASTROSTOMY FEED TUBE W/ Y-PORT 18FR

Constructed of a durable silicone allowing for longevity and optimal performance, these Y-Port gastrostomy feeding tubes come with safe enteral connection feeding ports. The Y-Ports are replaceable allowing caregivers to change ports instead of replacing the entire tube which results in saving for the patient. These feeding ports are not compatible with IV connections or Luer-Lock. This safety feature significantly reduces the risk of infusion and accidental connections. While reducing risks the safe enteral connections also address the 2006 JCAHO Tubing Misconnection Sentinel Event Alert.
