    摘要: An anti-reflux nasogastric tube includes a tube body and a positioning sleeve. The tube body has a first end and a second end. The first end has an opening. The second end has at least one hole. The opening communicates with the at least one hole through a pipeline. The positioning sleeve is disposed at the opening and has a socket part and an outer edge. The outer edge is located at one end of the socket part. The outer diameter of the outer edge is larger than the inner diameter of the nostril of the human body. Thus, the present invention allows the anti-reflux joints to be stuck in the nasal cavity of the human body by the structure of the positioning sleeve, and does not need to adhere the tube body to the cheek of the human body by adhering, thereby reducing the patient's discomfort and increasing the aesthetic appearance and avoiding inadvertent pulling.

    摘要: A package closure system may include a package outlet including a first connection element and a cap configured to removably connect to the package outlet using the first connection element and comprising a second connection element. An overcap can be configured to removably connect to the cap using the second connection element. A method for providing a nutritional composition from a container to an enteral line may include: removing an overcap from a cap, the cap is configured to direct a nutritional composition through a channel within the cap, the cap removably connected to the container; connecting the cap sealingly to the enteral line; and applying a pressure to the container to direct the nutritional composition from the container through the channel and into the enteral line.

    摘要: A respiratory mask can be used to provide therapy to patients who also require a nasogastric (NG) tube. The mask seal can include a path that is designed to deform around an NG tube or other without lifting the mask away from a patient's face. The deforming path can help to minimize gaps that form between the patient's face and the mask seal as a result of the tube, thus reducing leaks and improving the efficacy of the treatment.

    摘要: A feeding set for use with a peristaltic enteral feeding pump to deliver nutritional liquid fluid to a patient includes a container having nutritional liquid. A conduit assembly includes tubing placeable in fluid communication with the container and adapted for mounting on the enteral feeding pump. The tubing provides a fluid pathway for delivering the nutritional liquid from the container to a patient when the tubing is mounted on the enteral feeding pump. An identification member is mounted on the conduit assembly and has at least one characteristic of a nutritional liquid associated with the feeding set represented by the identification member. The identification member is positioned on the conduit assembly so as to permit automatic identification by the enteral feeding pump of the at least one characteristic of the nutritional liquid upon mounting the conduit assembly on the enteral feeding pump.

    摘要: A securing pocket for managing the loose portion of a medical tube, such as a Nasogastric/Nasojejunal tube, while an implanted portion of the medical tube remains attached to the patient. The loose portion of the medical tube has a coiled section disposed within a receptacle formed between flexible front and rear panels. An integral flap overlaps the front panel to selectively close the receptacle and may be secured with a snap connector. Jam cleats are located along left and right edges adjacent a top edge of the receptacle. Each jam cleat forms a breach in the receptacle through which a tethered section of the loose medical tube extends. The jam cleats are configured to apply a progressive wedge force on the tethered section of the loose medical tube in response to tension along the tube. The jam cleat has flexible sides formed in a V-shape.

    摘要: A device for moving contents of a tube by acting on the exterior of the tube is provided. The device includes a housing having a tube passageway extending along a length thereof for holding a tube therein. A first roller and a second roller are moveable between a first position and a second position and configured to compress the tube in the second position. A first roller chassis is coupled to the housing for mounting the first roller therein and a second roller chassis is coupled to the housing for mounting the second roller therein. The first and second roller chassis are moveable between a first position in which the tube is disengaged and a second position in which the tube is engaged. A lever operably coupled to the housing causes the first or second roller to pivot and engage the tube positioned within the passageway.
