Key Features
Gastric Access: This G-tube terminates in the stomach. It is suitable for patients with a functional stomach who do not require small-bowel (jejunal) feeding.
12 French Diameter: The slim 12 Fr size is ideal for infants and small children, minimizing the footprint of the stoma site while maintaining the ability to deliver liquid nutrition.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discrete under clothing and reducing the risk of accidental displacement, which is particularly important for active pediatric patients.
Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for maximum patient comfort and durability.
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 and allows for easy, non-surgical replacement.
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.
