Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube Kit MIC-Key 16 Fr. 1.0 cm Tube Silicone Sterile, 0120-16-1.0

$182.95

Description

Increased Flow Rate: The 16 Fr diameter is significantly wider than the 12 Fr models, allowing for faster bolus feeding and reducing the likelihood of clogging when administering thicker formulas or medications.
Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin. At 1.0 cm, it is designed for a very close fit, which minimizes "pistoning" (movement of the tube in and out of the stoma) that can cause irritation.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve at the top of the feeding port prevents stomach contents from leaking out when the extension set is disconnected.
SECUR-LOK* Locking System: The extension set must be inserted and turned to lock into place, preventing accidental disconnects during active feeds or sleep.
Recessed Distal Tip: When the balloon is inflated to at least 3 mL, the distal tip is shielded by the balloon to prevent it from rubbing against the stomach wall.
Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in line visible on X-rays for easy confirmation of the tube's position inside the stomach.
