- Addresses 2006 JCAHO tubing misconnections sentinel event alert.
- Purple feeding port indicates nutritional port, not IV access.
- Soft, 100% silicone material for ease of placement and enhanced patient comfort.
- Durable balloon construction increases tube longevity.
- Raised feet design allows air and moisture to circulate, promotes a healthy stoma site and allows for less skin irritation.
- ClipStar™ enteral security clip allows for passive or active locking.
