ENFit®-Compliant Oral/Enteral Syringes

Designed to minimise lipid loss and maximise nutrition delivery

NEOMED* ENFit® Syringes are available in sizes 1 mL – 100 mL. The ENFit® Low Dose Tip Syringe is available in sizes 1 mL – 6 mL exceeding GEDSA recommendations. The easy to read volume markings, offset tip, solid plunger and silicone O-ring gasket help facilitate accurate nutrition delivery.

NEOMED* ENFit® Syringes are validated in the ABC 4100, Medfusion 3500 and B. Braun Perfusor enteral pumps. When positioned horizontally in an enteral only pump, the offset tip syringe design allows for lipid first delivery. Using NEOMED* enteral syringes could reduce total fat loss typical of concentric enteral syringes by 5%- 15%.

NEOMED* GRAVITYPRO* Syringes feature an integrated hanger designed to eliminate the need to hand hold while gravity feeding and a vent zone designed to minimise exposure to air by allowing venting to occur while the plunger is in place. Alternatively, they will work with an enteral syringe pump for continuous feeds.

ENFit® NG/OG Feeding Tubes

NEOMED* ENFit® feeding tubes feature an open hub design which may help reduce bacterial  growth.

As an ENFit® transition leader, Avanos is committed to enhancing patient safety by offering the NEOMED* portfolio of ISO 80369-3 compliant (ENFit®) products that reduce the risk of enteral misconnections and innovative product designs that support infection prevention protocols.

NEOMED* ENFit® feeding tubes feature an open hub design which may help reduce bacterial growth.

The NEOMED* ENFit® Cleaning Tool is designed to remove debris from the feeding tube’s open hub. Silicone and polyurethane feeding tubes feature an open distal tip with three offset portholes.

ENFit®-Compliant Extension Sets

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND) recommends that extension sets be changed every 4 hours to help minimise buildup and help mitigate bacterial colonisation.

NEOMED* ENFit Extension Sets are available in straight and y-site configurations, with standard, large, and extra-large bore sizes. The priming volume for NEOMED* standard bore extension sets is less than 2.0 mL.

The NEOMED* GRAVITYPRO* Syringe with a large bore extension set allows for the delivery of thick/viscous nutrition by gravity feed.

ENFit®-Compliant Accessories

Designed to promote aseptic technique.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND) recommends the use of aseptic technique during milk preparation. NEOMED* filling devices such as straws and transfer lids are designed to promote aseptic technique.

The NEOMED* cleaning tool complements our open-hub design by rotating 360° to remove debris from the feeding tube or extension set ENFit® male connector. The cleaning tool supports third party recommendations for feeding tube care and maintenance.

NEOMED* collection bottles fit a wide variety of breast pump shields and feature bold gradient markings for precise mixing and compounding. The concave floor design helps minimise nutrition waste.
