The Tiger 2 Self-Advancing Nasal Jejunal Feeding Tube is intended to provide short-term enteral access for delivery of nutrition and/or medications to the small bowel in patients older than 12 years old.
Device Story
Tiger 2 is a 14 Fr, 153 cm long polyether-urethane nasal jejunal feeding tube; features 26-28 distal flaps designed to utilize natural gastrointestinal peristalsis for self-advancement into the small bowel. Device includes 5 distal sideports for delivery of nutrition/medication; proximal end features a red feeding adapter. Supplied sterile for single-use. Used in clinical settings to provide enteral access; operated by healthcare professionals. Output is the delivery of nutrition/medication directly to the small bowel; facilitates patient nutritional support. Benefits include non-invasive, peristalsis-assisted placement into the jejunum.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included tensile strength, liquid leakage, misconnection testing per ISO 80369-1:2010, and biocompatibility testing (cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous irritation, pyrogen, subchronic/subacute/acute systemic toxicity) per ISO 10993-1. All results met predetermined acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
14 Fr, 153 cm polyether-urethane tube; 26-28 distal flaps for peristaltic advancement; 5 distal sideports; 5 cm interval markings. Sterilized via ETO (SAL 10^-6). Includes ENFit transition connector. No electronic or software components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients older than 12 years requiring short-term enteral access for delivery of nutrition and/or medications to the small bowel.

# Test Data:
The following tests were performed to demonstrate that the Tiger 2™ Self-Advancing Nasal Jejunal Feeding Tube met applicable design and performance requirements and support a determination of substantial equivalence.
- Tensile Strength Testing shows that the subject device should not break or crack during 0 proper clinical use. The results showed that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met.
- Liquid Leakage Testing – Testing shows that the subject device should not leak during proper clinical use. The results showed that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met.
- . Misconnection Testing - Testing shows that the connector should not provide a secure connection when forcefully assembled to any surface of the components of and should easily disengage from each connector of every other application category specified in ISO 80369-1:2010 or should a connection engage, then greater that 75% of the infusate should leak from the misconnection between the connector and the reference connector. All test results are considered acceptable.
- Biocompatibility Testing demonstrated that the subject device conforms to the ● biocompatibility requirements based on its intended use. Per ISO 10993-1 and FDA guidance, testing for cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous irritation, pyrogen, subchronic toxicity, subacute toxicity, and acute systemic toxicity demonstrated the biocompatibility of the subject devices. All test results are considered acceptable.
The results of these tests showed that the subject device met the design input requirements based on the intended use, and support the conclusion that this device does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness and support a determination of substantially equivalence to the predicate device.
