Clarifying the Use of the 'New Force Tube': Devices in Medical and Pharmacological Contexts

6 min read
While the term 'new force tube' is not a recognized medical term, it likely refers to recent innovations in medical tubing and sensors designed to improve patient safety and medication delivery. These novel devices, such as force-sensing percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tubes and force-activated separation devices (FASDs), represent significant advancements in preventing complications associated with traditional tubing and catheter systems. Understanding the technology behind these newer systems is key to appreciating their role in modern pharmacology and medical care.
