The Medicina ENFit extension sets are manufactured with non-IV compatible Luer type connectors, and are available in a variety of lengths and configurations. The extension sets have a male Luer type connector which fits the female Luer type enteral syringes on one end, and a female Luer type connector which fits the male Luer type ended feeding tube. All ENFit components are non-IV compatible, color coded purple and use the Luer type connection.
ENFit Extension Features
- ENFit connection
- Wide bore extension sets are available for high density feeds
- ‘Y-Site’ extension sets are available
- Extension sets provide a safer option to connect to a feeding device. Children with increased length tubing run the risk of the tube wrapping around their neck.
The International Standards Organization, ISO CD 80369-3 for enteral feeding equipment has chosen a locking system with female ended syringes such as the Medicina ENFit safety system.
The committee found the female hubs of oral dose type feeding tubes unsafe and rejected them because they allow IV access when using a Luer slip IV syringe and other tapered tip adapters used throughout the medical community.

-
-
- The Medicine Straw can be used when drawing up medicines.
- The Milk Straw can be used when drawing up milk.
- The Medicine Needle is available to access multiple use vials.
- The Medicine Filter Straw is recommended when medicines are supplied in glass ampules.
- The Universal Bottle Adapter that fits most bottles is also available along with several press-in tamper-proof bottle adapters for the most common suspension bottles. (These allow the bottle adapter to stay in the bottle and the tamper-proof cap can be used to close the bottle in between dose).
-
When less than 0.5mls of medicine is delivered into the ENFit male Luer type connection of the feeding tubes, it is advisable to use the medicines straw when drawing up the drug as this will occupy the dead space of the syringe in the same way as the male Luer type lock of the feeding tube. In this way the medicine can be accurately delivered without considering the dead space of the syringe. It is important to flush tubes before and after medicines. Flushing before medicines prevents reactions with feeds. Flushing after medicines clears the priming volume of the tube and prevents reactions with feeds.
