Feeding Catheter


Nutri-cath® sterile catheter for enteral nutrition for neonatal and pediatric patients

Feeding tube for nasogastric or nasojejunal feeding or sampling. The tube is easy to place and passes the pylorus in just a few seconds. The catheter has a soft tip with holes and two opposite side holes at 0.5 and 1.0 cm (does not apply to 3.5 Fr) from the tip. This allows for rapid nutrition delivery without the risk of obstruction or perforation of the stomach. The catheter is graduated in 1 cm intervals and is radiopaque. Color-coded orange connection. Can be used continuously for at least 30 days.

The Nutri-cath catheter has a connection with an infusion port.
Nutri-cath is available in 4 sizes (3.5 – 8.0 Fr) and 3 lengths (40 – 93 cm).
Available with standard luer connection as well as EnFit.

The Nutri-cath nutrition catheter is available in both silicone and polyurethane, which are modern and advanced materials.

Advantages of silicone – a modern and advanced material with the following properties:

  • Extra soft and elastic
  • Biocompatible, does not adhere to or irritate tissue
  • Reduces the risk of infection and is not thrombogenic
  • Hydrophobic and does not need to be wetted before use
  • Does not contain plasticizers that may leach out during treatment
  • High stability and retains elasticity for a long time
  • Can be used for extended periods without needing replacement
