Description
Key Features
Dual-Port Access: The external bolster contains two distinct ports:
Jejunal Port: Used for feeding into the small intestine.
Gastric Port: Used for gastric decompression (venting), medication delivery, or drainage.
Low-Profile Bolster: Sits flush against the patient's skin, making it more comfortable, discreet under clothing, and less likely to be accidentally pulled out compared to standard length tubes.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal jejunal end is weighted and features a radiopaque stripe, allowing for easier placement and confirmation of position under fluoroscopy (X-ray).
High-Quality Silicone: Made from medical-grade, biocompatible silicone that is durable and provides a clear view of the tube's contents.
Inflatable Retention Balloon: A silicone internal balloon holds the tube securely in place within the gastric stoma.
