Low Profile Gastrostomy Tube Kit MIC-Key® 16 Fr. 1.7 cm Tube Silicone Sterile, 0120-16-1.7

$182.95

Description

16 French Diameter: A versatile mid-range gauge suitable for most standard nutritional formulas and liquid medications. It is smaller than the adult-standard 20 Fr, making it easier to insert into smaller stoma tracts.
1.7 cm Stoma Length: Provides slightly more "room" than the standard 1.5 cm. This helps prevent the button from pressing too hard against the skin, reducing the risk of pressure sores or "pitting."
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the abdomen, offering a discrete appearance under clothing and minimizing the risk of the tube being snagged or accidentally pulled out.
Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone that is soft and designed for durability (typically replaced every 3–6 months).
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve prevents stomach contents from leaking out when the extension set is disconnected.
