Description

The Enfit Enteral Syringe Reusable is a versatile tool designed for safe and effective administration of enteral tube feeds, water, and medications. Its primary function extends to aspirating feeding tubes, making it an essential device for healthcare settings involving neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients.

Key Features

• ENFit Compliance: This syringe is ENFit compliant, ensuring no misconnections with intravenous or Luer connections. It meets ISO 80369-3 standards for small-bore connectors, enhancing safety in enteral applications.
• Material Quality: Constructed from medical-grade materials, it is free from DEHP, latex, and PVC. The syringe features a crack-resistant polypropylene barrel and a plunger made of polypropylene and polyethylene. A silicone gasket with an O-ring prevents swelling during cleaning.
• Design: The three-piece design includes a barrel, plunger, and silicone gasket. It offers clear measurement markings for accurate dosing and a Low Dose Tip (LDT) for improved dose accuracy in 1ml and 2.5ml sizes.

Usability

• Identification: The syringe has a female ENFit tip, incompatible with Luer connectors and intravenous devices, and a purple plunger for easy identification. The transparent barrel with calibrated markings aids in precise measurement.
• Size Variability: Available in sizes 1ml, 2.5ml, 5ml, 10ml, 20ml, and 60ml, it caters to various dosing needs.
• Application: Suitable for bolus enteral tube feeding, administering water flushes, and medications. It is ideal for use in home or aged care settings.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: The syringe is reusable and washable. It should be cleaned with warm, soapy water, rinsed, and air-dried. The plunger should be removed and washed separately. Avoiding abrasive products is recommended to maintain the integrity of printed markings.
• Lifespan: It is reusable for up to 7 days or 40 washes. Users should discard the syringe if the black O-ring gasket is distorted, barrel markings become illegible, or the plunger movement is hindered.

Packaging

Individually packaged, the syringes are available in boxes of 60, 80, or 100. They are not compatible with oral-tipped or Luer-tipped systems and should not be sterilized or used with a syringe driver. This comprehensive design and careful adherence to standards make the Enfit Enteral Syringe Reusable a reliable choice for safe enteral feeding and medication administration.
