摘要：
The enteral feeding tube (100) with an inflatable cuff includes a mother tube (110) having a proximal end (112a) and an opposing distal end (112b) and a lumen extending therebetween, an inflatable cuff (115) disposed at the distal end (112a) of the mother tube (110), and a secondary tube (120) having a proximal end (122a) and an opposing distal end (112b) and a lumen extending therebetween. The enteral feeding tube (110) can be inserted into a patient's intestine through the mouth or nose of the patient. The inflatable cuff (115) can be inflated to engage and seal the pylorus of the patient's stomach, so that the distal end (122b) of the secondary tube (120) may extend into the jejunum to permit delivery of food thereto.
