Description

The Avanos 0270-16-2.3-30 is a MIC-KEY Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (GJ) Feeding Tube Kit*. It is a dual-function device designed for patients who need to receive nutrition directly into the small intestine (jejunal feeding) while simultaneously draining or decompressing the stomach (gastric access).

The model number specifies its dimensions: 16 Fr diameter, a 2.3 cm stoma (bolster) length, and a 30 cm jejunal (internal tube) length.

Key Features

  • Dual-Port Functionality: The external bolster features two distinct ports:

    • JEJUNAL Port: Used for delivering enteral nutrition into the distal duodenum or proximal jejunum.

    • GASTRIC Port: Used for gastric decompression, drainage, or medication administration.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discreet under clothing and reducing the risk of accidental snagging or dislodgment.

  • Tapered Distal Tip: The internal jejunal tube is tapered to allow for smoother passage through the pylorus during placement.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: The entire length of the tube contains a radiopaque marker, allowing for easy verification of the tube's position using X-ray or fluoroscopy.

  • Silicone Construction: Made from medical-grade silicone for long-term biocompatibility and patient comfort.

  • Inflatable Retention Balloon: Uses a high-quality silicone balloon to secure the device internally within the stomach.

Technical Specifications

  • Model Number: 0270-16-2.3-30.

  • Outer Diameter: 16 Fr (French).

  • Stoma Length: 2.3 cm.

  • Jejunal Length: 30 cm.

  • Balloon Capacity: 3–5 mL (recommended fill volume).

  • Connection Type: Non-ENFit (standard Luer-lock/slip).

  • MRI Compatibility: MR Conditional.

Kit Contents

This kit typically includes the following sterile components:

  • 1 Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal Feeding Tube.

  • 1 Introducer Cannula (to assist in placement).

  • 1 6 mL Luer Slip Syringe (for balloon inflation).

  • 1 35 mL Catheter Tip Syringe.

  • 1 MIC-KEY* Continuous Feed Extension Set (with SECUR-LOK* Right Angle Connector).

  • 1 MIC-KEY* Bolus Feed Extension Set (with SECUR-LOK* Straight Connector).

  • Gauze pads for the stoma site.

Primary Indications

  • Intestinal Motility Issues: For patients whose stomachs do not empty properly (gastroparesis).

  • Severe Reflux or Aspiration Risk: To bypass the stomach and reduce the risk of stomach contents entering the lungs.

  • Gastric Outlet Obstruction: When a blockage prevents food from leaving the stomach naturally.

  • Simultaneous Need: For patients requiring both feeding into the intestine and venting of the stomach.
