An enteral feeding device having an improved base adapted to be deployed outside the human body and a tube which is adapted to be deployed within a lumen or cavity of the body by insertion through a stoma from outside the body is disclosed. The base of the device has a recess directly surrounding at least a portion of the proximal end of the tube to permit increase air flow and minimize contact with the tissue immediately surrounding the stoma to facilitate tissue wellness and reduce patient side effects due to moisture build-up, skin irritation and granulation of the stoma tissue.
