A probe comprises a probe tube (4) having a tip area (6) and a tip (2) with an outlet opening (1), and a guide stylet (5) with a curved tip area (6'). The tube and the stylet are flexible so that, in the absence of an external force, the shape of the stylet is imparted on the tip area of the probe when inserted. An Independent claim is also included for a process of delivering fluid to the small intestine with the inventive probe comprising inserting the tube into the patient's stomach through the esophagus, inserting the stylet into the tube, inserting the tip to the patient's small intestines through the patient's pylorus, and passing the fluid through a lumen (9) and the opening of the tube.
