Icu Medical Inc - ICUM9000EA - Lopez Valve Closed Enteral Tube Valve

Very good product. Sturdy, water-proof, no leakage, fits securely. Great cost value.

I purchased this product via Amazon to use for a family pet cat that needed both medicine and food via a feeding tube after a nasty illness and surgery. It worked better than the valves the veterinary hospital sent us home with, which needed to be replaced after only a couple of weeks.. I readily admit that I do not really like the cat very much and ordered this because it appeared to be about the cheapest option available, and I had no desire to spend three hours on a round trip to the hospital and back. I used these valves for several months before the feline managed to yank the feeding tube out of his neck. On my local vets recommendation, the tube was not replaced.The valves were sturdy and connected readily to the feeding tub without leakage. I needed to feed out cat a fairly viscous solution of water and wet cat food, but it was easily cleaned off in my dishwashing machine. I soaked and hand-washed with a bleach solution afterward to get them sterile.12 months later the cat is fully recovered.I would purchase this again, obviously but hope I never need too.

If you need to connect two or three lines, this fitting may help you. It is easy to use and fits several tibe sizes. At under seven dollars, it is reasonably priced.

This is a great product! It reduces spillage. I’ve used a Lopez valve for the last 8 years. I recommend it for anyone using a g-tube.

I'm just glad i got a back up for my husband's PEG.

Great adapter no leaks. Be careful when removing from your feeding tube.

This works great with my son's J-Tube. The only thing I would like different, is for the orange cap to be tethered to the device.

This was used to replace a more difficult to maintain medical connection. It worked well but the patient, after using for a week, said it was too heavy compared to the other connection method and decided to not use it anymore. Slight modification to have an 'all closed' position would be nice, a future consideration.
