Features:
• Distinctive YELLOW* tube design
• Exit ports:
• Anti-clog bolus
• Bolus
• ENFit® design employed for reducing the risk of tubing misconnections.
ENFit® satisfies the ISO Standard (80369-3) for small bore enteral devices.
• Water-activated C-19* lubricant on tube tip
• Dual port to maintain closed system
• For YELLOW* feeding tubes Radiopacity: 20% barium tube, 40% barium
tip
Ability to Connect to Non-Enteral Medical Devices
• The ENFit® connectors were designed to prevent misconnections
between enteral devices and other devices used in various medical
applications. However, the design of the ENFit® connector cannot
overcome all chances of misconnection. The following connector
types are potential misconnections for the ENFit® connector (feeding/
medication access port) of this enteral feeding tube:
• Suction ports on Endotracheal Suction Systems
• Respiratory circuit filtration connectors
• Oxygen inlet connectors for Resuscitation Devices
• Baxter IV Solution Bag ports (such as NaCl, Ringers Solution, etc.)
• Sample ports on drainage bags
• Peritoneal Dialysis connectors
• Cones & sockets of ISO 5356-1:2004 & ISO 5356-2:2004
• Temperature sensor connectors & mating ports of ISO 8185:2007
• Oxygen nipples as defined in EN 13544-2:2002
CORFLO* NG/NI feeding tubes have satisfied biocompatibility testing as a
device for long-term use per ISO 10993-1.
Note: Placement and use of any feeding tube may result in patient
discomfort.
Complications
Infrequently occurring factors as a result of use or misuse of any feeding
tube may include:
• Pneumothorax
• Aspiration
• Tissue irritation or necrosis
• Contamination
• Delay or misdose of medication or nutrition and related complications
or the need for additional medical procedures

• GI perforation
• Airway obstruction
• Allergic reaction
• Delay in diagnosis

MRI Safety Information

Non-clinical testing demonstrated that the weighted CORFLO* Enteral
Feeding Tubes are MR Conditional. A patient with this device can be scanned
safely immediately after placement under the following conditions:
• Static magnetic field of 3-Tesla or less
• Spatial gradient magnetic field of 720-Gauss/cm or less
• MR system reported whole body averaged SAR of 3.0-W/kg
(i.e., associated with a calorimetry measured value of 2.8- W/kg)
Under the conditions described above using a transmit/receive RF body
coil the CORFLO* Enteral Feeding Tube produced the Highest temperature
change of +1.5 ˚C during MRI performed for 15-min in the 3-Tesla (3-Tesla/
128-MHz, Excite, Software G3.0-052B, General Electric Healthcare,
Milwaukee, WI) MR system.
Artifact Information: MR image quality may be compromised if the area of
interest is relatively close to the position of the CORFLO* Enteral Feeding
Tube. Therefore, optimization of MR imaging parameters to compensate for
the presence of this device may be necessary.
