AMT ENFit Transition Adapter Offers Transition Adapters for Your Enteral Connection Needs.
Features
ENFit Transition Adapters: ENFit male transitional adapters will be available to attach to the new administration sets with the ENFit female connectors. This will facilitate compatibility between the new ENFit system and the current existing part system as the market transitions.
Transition to Standard: The new ENFit system has been designed to reduce the misconnections between unrelated delivery systems (i.e. vascular, respiratory, epidural). Both enteral administrative sets and device sets will adjust to the ENFit standard.
What is ENFit ?
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has created a new standard design for enteral connectors, termed the "ENFit Connector". These new ENFit Connectors are intended to improve patient safety and to decrease the risk of medical device misconnections. This new connector has been designed to be incompatible with Luer adapters, which are commonly used in IV applications. The ENFit connector will look & secure very similar to a Luer threaded lock system, although the design is larger and thus, incompatible with Luers.
ENFit is a patient safety initiative, designed to ensure that feeding tube connectors are incompatible with the connectors for unrelated delivery systems such as trach tubes, IV lines, and catheters. Misconnections involving such medical devices may be relatively rare compared with the number of patients needing tubes or IVs, but such misconnections can have deadly consequences when they do occur. ENFit is a global initiative that affects end users, manufacturers, and suppliers. The ENFit Connectors were developed as part of the Stay Connected initiative under the supervision of clinicians, manufacturers, and regulators.
What Does This Mean for You?
What is changing is how you connect your food source to the feed set, which in turn connects to an enteral feeding device. The straight or right angle connectors, which attach and lock into low-profile feeding devices, will remain the same. The distal end of feed sets, which connect directly into the device, are not regulated at this time.
