Infant Feeding Tubes are medical devices that help babies who are unable to eat orally or who are having difficulty doing so receive nutrition and medication. These tiny, flexible tubes are inserted through the baby's mouth or nose and into the stomach or small intestine. They are made of medical-grade plastic or silicone. Infant Feeding Tubes might also be employed to give out medication. Until the baby can eat orally, these tubes are typically used for short-term feeding. To keep the tubes from becoming accidentally dislodged, they are taped or otherwise held in place. They are very effective and economical to use.
