Product Overview
The Corflo PEG Tube with EnFit Connectors Kit by Avanos Medical (Model 50-5520) is a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) feeding tube designed for reliable enteral nutrition delivery. It features a 20 French diameter and a conical bumper with a pull insertion method, ensuring safe and efficient placement.
Constructed from durable polyurethane, the Corflo PEG tube offers a larger inner lumen than silicone alternatives, improving flow rates and reducing the risk of clogging. Its collapsible bumper simplifies insertion and removal, eliminating the need for endoscopic extraction. The design ensures easy conversion to PEJ (percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy) with the optional jejunal extension kit for patients requiring post-pyloric feeding.
Equipped with EnFit connectors, the kit enhances safety by minimizing misconnections with other medical tubing systems. The included Basic Components Tray provides essential accessories for quick setup and secure use. Available in sizes 16 and 20 Fr, the Corflo PEG tube is ideal for long-term enteral feeding applications.
