STARFIT™ weighted enteral feeding tubes

Our weighted NASOGASTRIC and POSTPYLORIC GUIDE probes

HIGH RESISTANCE TO GASTRIC FLUIDS

Hoist Medical offers weighted STARFIT™ nasogastric tubes with ENFit^® guide and connector.

Polyurethane

WITH A 40% BARIUM RADIOPAQUE STRIP

Polyurethane offers a larger internal lumen than PVC or silicone, maximizing flow and reducing the risk of blockages. Polyurethane is preferred by clinicians and patients alike, as it reduces the risk of kinking during insertion while remaining soft and comfortable once in place.
