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.

Avanos - Indications for Use

The AVANOS CORFLO Feeding Tube is intended for use in those patients who require intermittent or continuous tube feedings via the nasogastric or nasoenteric route.

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 degree celcius 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.
