5 Facts About nutrisafe2®
Did you know… nutrisafe2® was developed based on the specific needs of premature babies?
From the very beginning, one patient was at the center of development: the premature infant. Not the average enteral patient, but the most vulnerable child, requiring a system that is small, hygienic, and extremely precise.
ENFit™, on the other hand, was designed for general enteral feeding needs, regardless of age or weight. It is a universal solution, not specifically tailored to neonatal vulnerability.
This origin makes nutrisafe2® particularly suited for neonates and ensures it meets the needs of the most fragile patients in pediatrics.
Did you know… the “2” in nutrisafe2® refers to the second, improved generation of our enteral feeding system?
When nutrisafe2® was launched twenty years ago, it wasn’t just a new version. It was a carefully considered improvement, based on real-world experience and technological progress. nutrisafe2® was designed to prevent incorrect connections to three-way stopcocks.
Since then, the range has continued to evolve with the medical needs of the smallest patients. What began as a safe solution for neonatal feeding has grown into a system trusted worldwide in hospitals.
By choosing nutrisafe2®, you choose a forward-thinking solution that will continue to meet the needs of the smallest and most vulnerable patients for the next decades, thanks to Vygon’s innovative vision and ongoing commitment to safe care.
Did you know… Nutrisafe2® was the first and only system specifically designed for safe enteral feeding until 2016?
Twenty years ago, neonatal care changed.
Nutrisafe2® entered the market as the first system that could deliver feeding safely to newborns, eliminating the risk of confusion with other lines.
Since then, there has not been a single reported case of misconnection worldwide. This gives confidence to healthcare professionals who work with precision every day, and to parents who entrust their child to the hospital. It also ensures that babies receive safe care from day one.
Nutrisafe2® is more than just a connector. It is a system that has done what it was designed to do for twenty years: protect, support, and make life a little safer.
Did you know… the High-Flow Nutrisafe2® tube is the latest innovation added to our range?
This tube is not just an extension. It is the result of years of observation and innovation in neonatal care.
Specifically developed to help reduce the growing number of CPAP-related abdominal distension cases, the Nutrisafe2® High-Flow offers a smart solution to a common problem in preterm infants under CPAP therapy.
With a 57% larger inner diameter (without increasing the outer diameter!) and a 48% higher flow rate, air can escape from the stomach more efficiently, significantly reducing the risk of abdominal distension.
Did you know… Nutrisafe2® fully complies with the international ISO 80369-1 standard?
This standard was introduced to prevent misconnections between medical lines.
Nutrisafe2® fully meets this requirement and was even designed with incompatibility in mind before the standard was implemented.
This makes the system not only safe in practice but also future-proof. It aligns with international guidelines while providing the precision and reliability needed in neonatal and pediatric care.
