Description
Technical Specifications
French Size: 14 Fr
Stoma Length: 1.0 cm (fits the abdominal wall thickness)
Jejunal Length: 22 cm (the length of the tube extending beyond the stomach into the small bowel)
Balloon Volume: 3 mL – 5 mL
Material: Medical-grade silicone
Ports: Distinct Gastric (White) and Jejunal (Green) ports
Key Features
Simultaneous Access: Allows for "venting" (releasing air or fluid) from the stomach through the Gastric port while a continuous feed is running through the Jejunal port.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The end of the 22 cm jejunal tail is weighted with tungsten to help the tube stay in place within the small intestine and resist "flipping" back into the stomach.
High-Visibility Port Labeling: The ports are clearly labeled and color-coded to prevent accidental infusion of formula into the Gastric port when it should be going into the Jejunal port.
Multiple Distal Exit Ports: The jejunal segment features several exit holes to ensure formula delivery is consistent and to minimize the risk of a single blockage stopping the feed.
Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in line runs the entire length of the tube, including the 22 cm tail, so clinicians can verify the correct position of the tip via X-ray or fluoroscopy.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin like a standard G-tube button, providing more comfort and discretion than traditional long G-J tubes.
