Entristar Skin Level Gastrostomy Kit
By: Covidien

The EntriStar™ Skin Level Gastrostomy Tube is constructed of a durable, polyurethane material and a unique, internal retention bolster that is ideal for long term use. Utilizing the patented, Gripstar™ insertion and removal device, the procedure is made much easier on both patient and clinician.

Features & Benefits:

• Nonballoon, internal retention bolster allows for long term use.
• Full spectrum of sizes and lengths for patient flexibility.
• Polyurethane construction features durable thermal sensitive material that softens when warmed to body temperature and retains it strength. Allows for thinner wall construction for better flow/decompression rates and fewer tube complications.
• Proximally located antireflux valve reduces exposure to the gastric fluids that would cause premature breakdown. Prevents fluid leakage.
• Reinforced obturator and Gripstar™ insertion removal device makes the procedure safer and easier on both patient and clinician.
• ClipStar™ active or passive locking mechanism.
• Raised feet design and external retention bolster minimizes contact with the skin to prevent irritation and skin breakdown. Allows for maximum air and moisture circulation, and promotes a healthy stoma site.
