Key Features
Gastric Access: This is a G-tube, terminating in the stomach. It is suitable for patients with a functional stomach who do not require small-bowel feeding.
12 French Diameter: This smaller diameter is ideal for infants and children, minimizing the size of the stoma site while still allowing for the delivery of liquid nutrition and medications.
Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discrete under clothing. This is especially beneficial for active children or infants to prevent the tube from being pulled or snagged.
Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone construction ensures the device is soft, flexible, and comfortable for sensitive skin.
Internal Retention Balloon: A high-quality silicone balloon (recommended fill volume 3–5 mL for this 12 Fr size) holds the device securely in the stomach.
Anti-Reflux Valve: An internal one-way valve prevents the backflow of stomach contents when the extension set is not connected.
Radiopaque Stripe: Features a built-in barium sulfate stripe for clear visualization under X-ray.
