Avoid tubing misconnections with ENFit® & McKesson Brands
The enteral feeding products you buy today will be changing. As manufacturers move to the ENFit design, connectors will need to be ENFit-compatible. Check out McKesson Brands for compatible products.
Tubing misconnections threaten the safety of patients with some outcomes leading to death. Enteral misconnections are possible when inadvertent connections occur between enteral feeding systems and non-enteral systems such as IV lines, tracheostomy tubes, peritoneal dialysis catheters etc. The Global Enteral Device Supplier Association's (GEDSA) StayConnected® program is working to help combat these occurrences and make enteral feeding safer with the transition to the ENFit® connector.
Non-ENFit products are being discontinued by most manufacturers starting July 1, 2022. Customers currently using McKesson Brands gravity sets will not yet be impacted as the transition adapter will be included until further notice.
