Description
Adapter “plugs” right into feeding tube to allow you to shorten overly long tubes. A shorter tube produces less stress, strain and pulling on the stoma site and is less likely to be caught on things and pulled out.
The “Christmas Tree” name refers to the fact that the end that goes into your tube is conical and graduated from larger down to smaller diameter – like an upside-down Christmas Tree. This allows it to enter a small tube and be pushed in until it is snug.
The adapter fits both clear and red rubber tubes.
You will be able to use luer slip or luer lock syringes with the adapter. (NOT catheter tip syringes)
