Description

Key Features

  • 16 French Diameter: A mid-range gauge that is thinner than the adult standard 20 Fr, often providing a more comfortable stoma footprint for certain patients while still allowing for standard liquid nutrition.

  • Ultra-Long 4.0 cm Stoma Length: One of the longest "neck" lengths available in the 16 Fr line. It ensures the internal retention balloon reaches the stomach cavity without the external button "sinking" into the skin.

  • Low-Profile Design: Despite the long stoma length, the external portion remains a flush-mount "button," which is more discrete and less prone to accidental dislodgment than a traditional long G-tube.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Transparent, biocompatible silicone construction designed for softness and durability.

  • Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A built-in one-way valve prevents the backflow of stomach acid or formula when the feeding extension set is disconnected.
