Description
The Avanos SIK-17-150-4 is the CORFLO* Gastric Initial Placement Kit (over-the-wire) using the Sadowski-Iber (SIK) technique. This kit is used by gastroenterologists or interventional radiologists for the initial "pull" method placement of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube.
Unlike the MIC* replacement tubes you previously inquired about, this is a primary insertion kit used to create the stoma tract for the first time.
Key Features
17 French Diameter: The size of the gastrostomy tube included in the kit.
150 cm Length: The length of the pull wire/snare included to facilitate the "pull" technique from the mouth through the abdominal wall.
Over-the-Wire (SIK) Technique: Named after the Sadowski-Iber method, this kit is designed for a streamlined procedure that reduces trauma during the initial pull through the esophagus and stomach.
Polyurethane Construction: CORFLO* tubes are made of medical-grade polyurethane, which is stronger and has a larger internal diameter (lumen) than silicone tubes of the same French size, making them highly resistant to kinking and clogging.
Collapsible Internal Bumper: Features a "dome-style" internal bolster that collapses during insertion and expansion but provides a secure anchor once in place.
Yellow Extension Tubing: Often associated with the CORFLO* brand, the tubing is specifically designed for enteral use to prevent misconnections.
