Description
he Avanos 0270-16-1.2-15 is a MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This specialized medical device is designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric access (for decompression, venting, or drainage) and jejunal access (for delivery of nutrition and medication).
This specific model is a pediatric or lean-adult size, featuring a 16 French diameter, a 1.2 cm stoma length, and a 15 cm jejunal length.
Key Features
Dual-Port Functionality: The external "button" head contains two separate ports:
Gastric Port: Labeled "GASTRIC," this port is used to vent air or drain fluid from the stomach to relieve pressure, nausea, and bloating.
Jejunal Port: Labeled "JEJUNAL," this port allows for enteral nutrition and medication to be delivered directly into the small intestine.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making the device discreet under clothing and less likely to be accidentally dislodged than traditional "long" G-J tubes.
1.2 cm Stoma Length: Designed for patients with a relatively thin abdominal wall, providing a secure fit that minimizes movement within the stoma tract.
15 cm Jejunal Segment: This is the shortest jejunal length available for the 16 Fr series, typically used for smaller pediatric patients to ensure the tip terminates in the distal duodenum or proximal jejunum.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The end of the jejunal segment is weighted and radiopaque, helping to prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach and allowing for clear position confirmation via X-ray or fluoroscopy.
Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for maximum flexibility and patient comfort.
