Low-Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube MIC-Key 12 Fr. 2.7 cm Tube Silicone, 0120-12-2.7

$182.95

Description

French Size: 12 Fr (the diameter of the tube).
Stoma Length: 2.7 cm (the distance from the stomach wall to the skin surface).
Balloon Volume: 3 mL – 5 mL (recommended fill volume for the internal retention balloon).
Material: Medical-grade silicone for biocompatibility and flexibility.

Low-Profile Design: The "button" sits flat against the skin, making it less noticeable under clothing and harder for the patient (especially children) to pull on.
SECUR-LOK* Connection: Features a patented locking mechanism for extension sets to prevent accidental disconnection during feeding.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve located inside the feeding port that prevents stomach acid or formula from leaking out when the tube is not in use.
Radiopaque Stripe: The tube contains a stripe visible under X-ray to allow clinicians to verify proper placement without invasive procedures.
Tapered Distal Tip: The end of the tube is tapered to allow for smoother insertion and less irritation to the gastric mucosa.
Recessed Tip: When the balloon is inflated, the distal tip is shielded to prevent the tube from rubbing against or poking the stomach wall.

This specific part number typically comes as a comprehensive kit including:

The MIC-KEY* G-Tube
Two Extension Sets: One for continuous feeding (right-angle connector) and one for bolus feeding (straight connector).
Syringes: A 6 mL luer slip syringe for the balloon and a 35 mL catheter tip syringe for flushing.
Gauze: For cleaning the stoma site during the initial change.
