The Replacement Feeding Tube is designed to be replaced when needed. It is attached to the placed PEG device as it is slid into its location within the tube resulting in its distal end to reach the distal end of the main tube and internal bumper thus allowing the required substances (food or medications) to be inserted directly into the stomach.
A non-sterile, thin, flexible tube intended for extracorporeal connection to an enteral feeding tube (e.g., nasogastric tube) to increase the length of tubing from the patient to an oral/enteral device (e.g., syringe) during enteral feeding/medication administration or aspiration. It is typically a single-lumen, rubber or plastic tube of various diameters/lengths. This is a single-use device.
