Key Features
Gastric Access: This is a G-tube, terminating just inside the stomach. Unlike the "J" models (Jejunal), it does not have long internal tubing extending into the small bowel.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discrete under clothing and significantly reducing the risk of accidental displacement or "pull-outs" compared to traditional "dangly" tubes.
Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone construction ensures the device is soft, flexible, and durable.
Internal Retention Balloon: A high-quality silicone balloon holds the device securely in the stomach. The recommended fill volume for this 16 Fr size is 3–5 mL.
Anti-Reflux Valve: An internal one-way valve prevents the leakage of stomach contents when the extension set is disconnected.
Radiopaque Stripe: Features a built-in barium sulfate stripe for clear visualization under X-ray to confirm the tube's position.
