Description

The Avanos 0270-16-1.7-15 is a MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This specialized device is used for patients who require gastric decompression (venting or drainage) while simultaneously receiving nutrition directly into the small intestine (jejunum).

This configuration features a 16 French diameter, a 1.7 cm stoma length, and a 15 cm jejunal length.

Key Features

  • Dual-Port Access: The low-profile "button" head contains two separate ports:

    • Gastric Port: Labeled "GASTRIC," it is used to vent air or drain fluid from the stomach to relieve pressure, nausea, and bloating.

    • Jejunal Port: Labeled "JEJUNAL," it allows for enteral nutrition and medication to be delivered directly into the small intestine, bypassing the stomach.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it more comfortable and discreet than traditional long G-J tubes and reducing the risk of accidental dislodgement.

  • 1.7 cm Stoma Length: Designed for patients with an average-to-slightly-thick abdominal wall, ensuring a secure fit that prevents the bolster from being too tight or too loose.

  • 15 cm Jejunal Segment: This is the shortest standard jejunal length for the 16 Fr series, typically used for pediatric patients or smaller adults to ensure the tip terminates correctly in the proximal jejunum.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal end of the jejunal tube is weighted and radiopaque, helping to maintain its position and allowing for clear visualization under X-ray or fluoroscopy.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for maximum flexibility and durability.
