Maneuverable nasoenteric feeding tube

A maneuverable feeding tube system comprising:

• a feeding tube device comprising:
• a feeding tube having an internal lumen extending from a proximal end having a proximal opening to a distal end having a distal opening;
• and
• a port coupled to the proximal end of the feeding tube, the port having a port lumen extending from a first port end to a second port end, the port lumen being a segmented lumen and having a first lumen opening at the first port end and a second lumen opening at the second port end, the first lumen opening being larger than the second lumen opening, the segmented lumen having a first lumen segment having the proximal end of the feeding tube located therein such that the feeding tube extends from the first lumen opening, the segmented lumen having a second lumen segment extending from the first segment to the second lumen opening, wherein the first lumen segment has a larger cross-sectional dimension than the second lumen segment, the port having an adapter-receiving surface with a first fastener member;
• and
• a maneuverable tube device that is slideably removable from the internal lumen of the feeding tube, the maneuverable tube device comprising:
• a maneuverable tube dimensioned to be located within the internal lumen of the feeding tube, the maneuverable tube having a proximal end and a flexible distal end that when located within the internal lumen of the feeding tube the flexible distal end is associated with the distal opening of the feeding tube, wherein the flexible distal end includes one or more flex members;
• an elongate control member having a first end coupled to the flexible distal end of the maneuverable tube and the elongate control member extending through the maneuverable tube and from the proximal end;
• and
• an actuator adapter coupled to the proximal end of the maneuverable tube and having an actuator member coupled to a second end of the elongate control member, the actuator adapter having a port-receiving surface that is configured to be removably coupled to the adapter-receiving surface of the port such that the control member extends from the actuator member through an internal conduit of the actuator adapter, the port-receiving surface having a second fastener member configured to couple with the first fastener member.
