Our Tube Feeds

Safe, Convenient and Eco-friendly

More than 40 years experience in tube feeding

Fresenius' first enteral nutrition product was developed in 1975 in Bad Homburg (central Germany). Since then, Fresenius Kabi has become an internationally recognised expert in clinical nutrition, providing enteral nutrition products to patients in more than 100 countries.

Four decades of continuous research and development in close collaboration with healthcare professionals across the world have produced a sophisticated portfolio that meets patients' needs in accordance with their conditions, diseases and ages. Ongoing development and innovation regularly lead to product updates and entirely new product concepts based on the latest scientific findings and technological advances.

What is tube feeding?

Tube feeding is a procedure used for administering liquid nutrition directly into the stomach or small intestine through a tube inserted through the nose or abdomen. 

When is tube feeding used?

Tube feeding can help you to meet your nutritional needs in times when you are not able to eat enough. This may occur if you physically cannot eat or swallow safely or if your requirements are increased beyond your ability to eat.

Duration of tube feeding

Tube feeding can seem like a challenging adjustment for you or a loved one. Your doctor, nurses, a dietitian, and home healthcare providers can help make this adjustment a successful one. 

Tube feeding is often used as a short-term solution while someone recovers from an illness, injury, or surgery. A lot of people receiving enteral feeds return to regular eating.

There are some situations where enteral feeding is used as a long-term solution, such as for people with critical or chronic medical conditions or an older person who cannot maintain their nutritional needs.

All usage of tube feeding should always aim to increase the patient's quality of life.
