The Gabriel® Feeding Tube with Balloon is an innovative system that facilitates enteral feeding access. Once the feeding tube is inside the patient's stomach, the Gabriel Feeding Tube with Balloon uses the body's natural mechanics of peristalsis to advance the tube to the optimal location for safe enteral feeding.

Benefits of the Gabriel Feeding Tube with Balloon

• Distal end balloon allows for post pyloric migration using the body’s natural peristalsis

• Wire reinforced wall prevents occlusion by kinking

• Inflated Balloon allows for accurate end tidal CO2 sampling to detect tracheal misplacement

• Distal hole and included thread allow for placement with decreased nasopharyngeal trauma

• Balloon size prevents advancement into the lungs and decreases risk of pneumothorax
