$182.95

Description

Gastric Access: This G-tube terminates just inside the stomach. It is designed for patients who have a functional stomach and do not require feeding into the small intestine (jejunum).
18 French Diameter: A mid-range size that balances efficient flow for standard enteral formulas with a smaller, more comfortable stoma footprint than 20 or 24 Fr tubes.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discrete under clothing and reducing the risk of accidental displacement or snagging compared to traditional long tubes.
Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone that is soft against the skin and durable for long-term enteral support.
Internal Retention Balloon: A high-quality silicone balloon (recommended fill volume 3–5 mL for 18 Fr) holds the device securely in the stomach and allows for relatively painless, non-surgical replacement.
Anti-Reflux Valve: An internal one-way valve prevents the leakage of stomach contents when the extension set is disconnected.
Radiopaque Stripe: Includes a barium sulfate stripe for clear visualization under X-ray to verify the tube’s position within the gastric cavity.
