Description

The Avanos 0270-16-1.7-45 is a MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This specialized medical device is designed for patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding and require nutrition delivered directly into the small intestine (jejunum), while simultaneously requiring access to the stomach for decompression (venting) or drainage.

This configuration features a 16 French diameter, a 1.7 cm stoma length, and a 45 cm jejunal length. The 45 cm segment is a common length for adult patients, ensuring the tip reaches deep enough into the jejunum to prevent it from migrating back into the stomach.

Key Features

  • Dual-Port Functionality: 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 discreet under clothing and less likely to be accidentally dislodged or snagged compared to traditional long G-J tubes.

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

  • 45 cm Jejunal Segment: A standard length for most adults, designed to pass through the stomach and pylorus and terminate securely in the jejunum.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The end of the jejunal segment is weighted and radiopaque. This helps maintain the tube's position in the small intestine and allows for clear placement confirmation via X-ray or fluoroscopy.

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