$182.95

Description

Gastric Access: This is a G-tube, terminating just inside the stomach wall. It is designed for patients with a functional stomach who do not require feeding into the small intestine (jejunum).
18 French Diameter: A versatile mid-range size that offers a balance between efficient flow for standard enteral formulas and a comfortable, smaller stoma footprint compared to 20 or 24 Fr models.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discrete under clothing and significantly reducing the risk of accidental displacement or snagging compared to traditional "long" tubes.
Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for patient comfort, flexibility, and long-term durability.
Internal Retention Balloon: A high-quality silicone balloon (recommended fill volume 3–5 mL for this 18 Fr size) holds the device securely in the stomach and allows for 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: Features a built-in barium sulfate stripe for clear visualization under X-ray to confirm the tube's position within the gastric cavity.
