Designed for Nasogastric Feeding
The Kangaroo™ Non-Weighted Feeding Tube is designed specifically for nasogastric feeding.
Its clear polyurethane construction provides a practical enteral feeding solution while the open distal end and large exit holes are designed to support efficient flow.
Clear Polyurethane Construction
The feeding tube is manufactured from clear polyurethane material.
The transparent construction provides visual clarity and supports routine clinical handling during enteral feeding procedures.
Open Distal Tip and Large Exit Holes
The distal tip of the Kangaroo™ Non-Weighted Feeding Tube is open and incorporates large exit holes.
This configuration is designed to provide optimal flow and decompression rates while helping minimise tube complications.
Proximal Y-Site Connector
The tube features a proximal Y-site connector with catheter tip adapter.
The connector provides separate access points to support enteral feeding and other clinically required tube access.
Fluid and Medication Access
A dedicated access tube allows healthcare professionals to administer fluid or medication without disconnecting the pump set.
This helps simplify medication or fluid administration during ongoing enteral feeding according to facility procedures.
Radiopaque Stripe
The Kangaroo™ Non-Weighted Feeding Tube incorporates a radiopaque stripe.
This feature allows the tube to be identified using X-ray or fluoroscopy when clinically required.
