Precision Length Markings: Graduated centimeter measurements are marked along the tube from 5 to 25 cm, providing a visual indicator for both initial placement and migration checks.
Safe, Premium Materials: Constructed from smooth, thermosensitive polyvinyl chloride (PVC) that warms to body temperature. It is completely DEHP-free and latex-free to ensure high biocompatibility and protect sensitive patients.Easy Identification: The purple color clearly denotes that the tube is strictly for enteral feeding.
