Key Features
Dual-Port Functionality: The external "button" base features two distinct ports:
GASTRIC Port: Used for gastric decompression, drainage, or administering medication into the stomach.
JEJUNAL Port: Used for delivering enteral nutrition directly into the jejunum.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal (jejunal) tip is weighted to help maintain its position within the small intestine and prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach.
Multiple Exit Ports: The jejunal segment features multiple exit portholes to improve flow and reduce the risk of clogging from formula buildup.
Anti-Reflux Valves: Both the gastric and jejunal ports contain internal one-way valves to prevent leakage when extension sets are disconnected.
Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in line allows for easy verification of the tube's entire path (from stomach to jejunum) using X-ray or fluoroscopy.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin to reduce snagging on clothing and improve patient comfort compared to traditional "long" G-J tubes.
