Which feeding tube size is right for a newborn?
That is a clinical decision for the health worker placing the tube. It depends on the baby’s weight and the feeding plan. Most newborn units keep all four sizes so the right one is always on the shelf.
The colour coded luer mount helps staff tell the sizes apart in a hurry. Grey is 5FG, light green is 6FG and white is 7FG. Feeding tubes Kenya newborn units stock in all four sizes rarely run short of the one that is needed.
What is the difference between 5FG and 8FG?
The diameter. FG is the French gauge and three units equal one millimetre, so a 5FG tube is narrower than an 8FG tube. Length is the same 50 cm on every size.
Smaller babies usually need the narrower tubes. The feeding tubes Kenya neonatal units order most are the middle sizes, but all four have a place.
