Kangaroo Y-Site Extension Set with Enfit Connection

Why Choose the Kangaroo Y-Site ENFit Extension Set?

In enteral feeding care, minimising disconnections from the feeding line is a meaningful patient safety practice. Every disconnection introduces contamination risk, disrupts feeding continuity, and adds handling steps for the caregiver. The Kangaroo Y-Site ENFit Extension Set provides an elegant solution: an integrated Y-site port that allows medication administration and line flushing to be performed directly into the feeding system — without stopping the feed, removing the enteral connection, or exposing the line to open air. The ENFit connection at the distal end provides the standardised, misconnection-resistant interface required under modern enteral safety practice, making it physically impossible to accidentally connect an IV syringe or IV set. DEHP-free and latex-free construction supports safer patient care across sensitive populations. The approximately 6-inch tubing length adds practical flexibility in positioning the feeding line at the bedside. Compatible with Kangaroo gravity and pump feeding systems including the 224, 324, and PET series.

Key Features

• Y-site port allows medication administration and flushing without disconnecting the enteral feeding line
• ENFit® connection prevents IV misconnections — the enteral safety standard
• Approximately 6-inch extension tubing for practical bedside flexibility
• Compatible with Kangaroo feeding systems including gravity sets and pumps (224, 324, PET)
• DEHP-free and latex-free construction for safer patient care
• Single-use design minimises contamination risk
• Keeps the feeding line closed during medication delivery and flushing

Benefits

• ENFit connection eliminates the risk of dangerous IV misconnections in enteral feeding
• Y-port allows medication and flush delivery without stopping or disconnecting the feed
• Reduces the number of enteral line disconnections, lowering contamination exposure
• DEHP-free and latex-free materials support safer care for sensitive patients
• Broader compatibility with Kangaroo gravity and pump feeding systems
• Single-use design ensures consistent hygiene across each feeding set

Clinical & Typical Applications

Hospital enteral feeding patients on continuous feeds requiring a Y-site access point for medication delivery without feed interruption

Long-term care residents receiving enteral nutrition where regular medication administration through the feeding line is part of the care routine

Home enteral feeding patients on gravity or pump systems managed by nurses or caregivers who administer medications via the tube

Intensive care and post-surgical patients on continuous enteral feeds where line disconnection should be minimised

Rehabilitation and palliative care settings where enteral tube feeding and co-administered medications are a routine daily combination

Facilities transitioning to ENFit-standard enteral equipment requiring compatible Y-site extension sets across gravity and pump systems

Usage & Care

Single-Use Only: This extension set is intended for single use only. Do not reuse, reprocess, or re-sterilise.

Inspection: Check packaging integrity before use. Do not use if the packaging is damaged, open, or past the expiry date.

Connection: Connect the ENFit end to the patient's feeding tube or to the distal end of the feeding set. Ensure all connections are fully engaged before commencing feeding. The ENFit design is incompatible with IV lines — do not force connections with non-ENFit systems.

Y-Site Use: Close the Y-port cap between uses. When administering medication or flushing, connect a compatible ENFit syringe to the Y-port. Flush the line before and after medication delivery following clinical protocol.

Disposal: Dispose of used sets in accordance with local clinical waste regulations and facility protocols.
