Description

The Avanos 0270-16-1.7-30 is a MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This device is a specialized solution for patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding and require nutrition delivered directly into the small intestine, while still needing access to the stomach for decompression or medication.

This configuration features a 16 French diameter, a 1.7 cm stoma length, and a 30 cm jejunal length. The 30 cm jejunal segment is the longest standard length in the 16 Fr series, making it suitable for taller pediatric patients or adults where extra reach into the jejunum is required to ensure the tube remains properly positioned.

Key Features

  • Dual-Port Access: The low-profile "button" head includes two distinct access points:

    • Gastric Port: Used for venting air (decompression) or draining stomach contents to prevent nausea and reflux.

    • Jejunal Port: Used for the continuous delivery of enteral nutrition and medication directly into the small bowel.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making the device discreet, comfortable, and less prone to accidental dislodgement than "long" G-J tubes.

  • 1.7 cm Stoma Length: Tailored for patients with an average-to-slightly-thick abdominal wall, providing a secure fit that prevents the device from pulling too tightly against the skin.

  • 30 cm Jejunal Segment: This length allows the tube to pass through the pylorus and sit deep enough within the jejunum to minimize the risk of "flipping" or migrating back into the stomach.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal tip is weighted and radiopaque, assisting in proper placement during the initial procedure and allowing for easy verification via X-ray or fluoroscopy.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone construction ensures the tube remains flexible and durable over its clinical lifespan.
