THE CORFLO® ENDO/F NI PRODUCT LITERATURE
The CORFLO—ENDO/F NI feeding tubes are polyurethane nasoenteric tubes with the CORFLO—ULTRA anti-clog tip. They are specifically designed for placement in the small bowel over a guide wire, under endoscopic guidance and supplied as complete kits with all necessary components:
- 1 Ea. 300 cm, Teflon coated flexible guide wire (0.9 mm diameter), in dispenser sheath
- 1 Ea. 12 Fr., 60” (152 cm) feeding tube with 7 gm bolus weight or 10 Fr., 60“ (152 cm) non-weighted bolus
- 1 Ea. 10 Fr., 22” (56 cm) nasal/oral transfer tube with pre-inserted stylet
These tubes are designed to save the physician time. During placement, the endoscope is withdrawn from the patient leaving the guide wire in place. The tube is advanced over the guide wire for precise placement in the small bowel.
Indications
The use of the CORFLO—ENDO/F NI tubes are indicated in the following circumstances:
- For duodenal/jejunal feeding when spontaneous transpyloric passage of an intragastrically sited tube has failed
- In any circumstance where proper G.I. anatomy is so altered that direct vision is desireable (by endoscopy) to ensure correct tube positioning.
