Product Description：
- A new global design standard for tube feeding devices, such as feeding bags, syringes and tubes, will improve patient safety by reducing the incidence of medical device tubing misconnections. The new design is called ENFit and will change the way your enteral devices look and function
- Medical device tubing misconnections are defined as inadvertent connections between enteral feeding systems and non-enteral systems such as intravenous (IV) lines, dialysis catheters, respiratory tubing, etc. For example, care providers can inadvertently connect the wrong tubing together and deliver enteral formula into an IV line, which may cause injury
- The tube feeding industry has worked closely with safety organizations to standardize a design for all tube feeding devices to minimize the occurrence of medical device tubing misconnections
- This transition has been in the works for a couple of years and the goal is for it to go smoothly, so that you have everything you need to feed safely. Therefore, the schedule is subject to change to give consumers time to adapt to the new design
