The feeding tube is indicated for use in percutaneous placement of an enteral feeding tube in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication, or decompression through an established gastrointestinal stoma tract. The Kangaroo Skin Level Gastrostomy Device Feed Set Kit with ENFit® Connection is indicated for use in adult and pediatic patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration, or decompression through a Kangaroo Skin Level Device.

The Kangaroo ™ Skin Level Balloon Gastrostomy Kit will be comprised of one Kangaroo™ Skin Level Device and one of each of the feed sets. The feed sets, continuous and bolus, are also available in Feed Set Kits packaged individually and then boxed as a 10-pack. The Kangaroo™ SLD is constructed primarily of silicone and consists of a hub which is overmolded on to a previously extruded bi-lumen shaft. The tip of the shaft is filled with radiopaque barium RTV. At the distal end, a silicone subsumed tip balloon is reverse bonded to the shaft using a silicone RTV. This subsumed tip balloon accomplishes patient comfort by not exposing the tip of the shaft to the patient as well as being in line with the shaft. In use, the balloon end of the catheter is inserted through a gastrointestinal stoma tract and into the stomach. The balloon is then inflated with sterile or distilled water (per the recommended volume for the specific device size) to secure the device in place. To confirm placement of the device in the stomach, fluoroscopic procedures are typically used since the catheter shaft tip has radiopaque barium stripe present. Accessories for the Kangaroo™ SLD include two feed extension set confiqurations (ENFit bolus and continuous), an inflation syringe, a feeding syringe (ENFit), and gauzes. The hub has two ports. The top (center) port contains a reflux valve assembly which is keyed to accept the feed set valve connectors. Leaks are prevented by the reflux valve assembly (with cross-slit valve design). The second port is the inflation port and contains the inflation valve. The device is available in the configurations per determined market needs shown below in Table 5.5-2. The feed extension sets have a valve connector end that inserts into the Kangaroo™ SLD reflux valve. For these ENFit Feed Sets, the opposite end has an ENFit-compatible connector complying with ISO 80369-3 (for prevention of misconnections with nonenteral feeding devices). The extension set can then connect to any ENFit-compatible enteral giving sets or ENFit-compatible syringes. Finally, both the Kangaroo™ Skin Level Device and the Kangaroo™ Feed Sets are compatible with competitor devices currently on the market.

The feeding tube is indicated for use in percutaneous placement of an enteral feeding tube in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication or decompression through an established gastrointestinal stoma tract. The Entuit LP Patient Care Kit is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration or decompression through an Entuit LP Gastrostomy BR Balloon Retention Feeding Tube. The Entuit LP Patient Care Kit with ENFit Connection is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration or decompression through an Entuit LP Gastrostomy BR Low Profile Balloon Retention Feeding Tube. The feeding tube is indicated for use in percutaneous placement of an enteral feeding tube in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication, or decompression through an established gastrointestinal stoma tract. The PromaX LP Patient Care Kit with ENFit is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients that require enteral feeding, medication administration, or decompression through a PromaX Low Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube.

The proposed low profile devices are constructed primarily of silicone and consists of a hub which is overmolded on to a previously extruded bi-lumen shaft. At the distal end, a silicone balloon is bonded to the shaft using a silicone RTV. The tip of the shaft is filled with radiopaque barium RTV. The hub has two ports. The top (center) port contains a reflux valve assembly which is keyed to accept the extension set connectors. Leaks are prevented by the reflux valve assembly (with cross-slit valve design). The second port is the inflation port and contains the inflation valve. In use, the balloon end of the catheter is inserted through a gastrointestinal stoma tract and into the stomach. The balloon is then inflated with sterile or distilled water (per the recommended volume for the specific device size) to secure the device in place. To confirm placement of the device in the stomach, fluoroscopic procedures are typically used since the catheter shaft tip has radiopaque barium stripe present. Accessories for the proposed devices include two extension set configurations (bolus and continuous, each available in both ENFit-compatible version and non-ENFit compatible version due to ENFit market transition status), an inflation syringe, a feeding syringe (similarly available in both ENFit compatible and non-ENFit compatible versions), gauzes, and a stoma measuring device (for the Entuit offering) to facilitate device placement and use.
