Technical Specifications

  • Model Number: 8210-18

  • Size: 18 Fr (Outer Diameter)

  • Jejunal Length: 57.9 cm (Length of the portion that extends into the small intestine)

  • Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml (Inflatable silicone internal retention balloon)

  • Connectors: ENFit® Connectors (Purple-coded to ensure enteral-only connections)

  • Material: High-clarity, medical-grade silicone

  • Sterility: Sterile (Single-use)


Key Features

  • Dual-Lumen Access: Provides two distinct channels within a single tube:

    • Gastric Port: Used to vent air or drain secretions from the stomach.

    • Jejunal Port: Used to deliver nutrition and medicine directly into the small intestine (bypassing the stomach).

  • Internal Retention: A high-quality silicone balloon is inflated inside the stomach to prevent the tube from migrating or being accidentally pulled out.

  • Placement Security: * Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The end of the jejunal tube is weighted with tungsten to help it stay in position within the small bowel.

    • Radiopaque Stripe: A high-contrast stripe runs the length of the tube for clear visibility under X-ray or fluoroscopy.

  • External Bolster: Features the SECUR-LOK* ring, which keeps the tube flush against the skin while allowing air to circulate around the stoma to prevent irritation.
