| Do I need to apply a lubricant to insert enteral feeding tube? |
| Unlike other feeding tubes, CORFLO® polyurethane feeding tubes contain a water-activated lubricant that allows insertion without the need of additional lubricants. |
| |
| How can I confirm the position of the feeding tube? |
| All CORFLO® feeding tubes have a radiopaque line throughout the tube. After inserting the required length of the feeding tube, according to the distance between the patient’s nose and the tip of the sternum and length marks along the tube, it is advisable to take X-rays to visualize the position of the feeding tube tip. |
