Description
Technical Specifications
French Size: 12 Fr
Stoma Length: 1.2 cm (the distance from the base of the "button" to the top of the balloon).
Balloon Fill Volume: 3 mL (recommended); 5 mL (maximum).
Material: Medical-grade silicone.
Compatibility: Uses standard MIC-KEY* extension sets (Non-ENFit).
Key Features
Low-Profile Design: Sits very close to the skin, providing a discreet appearance and preventing the "lever" effect where a longer tube might tilt and cause stoma enlargement.
High-Clarity Silicone: Allows for easy visual inspection of the tube's cleanliness and the functionality of the internal valve.
Anti-Reflux Valve: An internal mechanism that automatically seals when an extension set is removed, preventing the leakage of stomach contents onto the skin or clothing.
SECUR-LOK* Connection: A secure locking system that ensures the extension set stays in place even if the patient is moving or turning during a feed.
Tapered Distal Tip: Designed to guide the tube into the stoma tract with minimal resistance.
Recessed Tip: At the 3 mL fill volume, the balloon surrounds the tip of the tube to protect the gastric mucosa from trauma.
Radiopaque Stripe: Enables quick confirmation of the tube's location via X-ray without the need for contrast media.
