Description

The Avanos 0270-18-1.5-22 is a MIC-KEY Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (GJ) Feeding Tube Kit*. This configuration is designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric decompression and jejunal feeding and have a slightly deeper stoma than the 1.2 cm models.

The model number specifies its dimensions: 18 Fr diameter, a 1.5 cm stoma (bolster) length, and a 22 cm jejunal tube length.

Key Features

  • Dual-Port Access: The low-profile external bolster includes two distinct ports:

    • JEJUNAL Port: Specifically for delivering nutrition into the small intestine.

    • GASTRIC Port: Used for venting, decompressing the stomach, or administering medications.

  • Standard Pediatric Stoma Length: The 1.5 cm stoma length is a very common size for pediatric patients and lean adults, providing a secure fit that isn't too tight against the abdominal wall.

  • Compact Jejunal Reach: The 22 cm internal tube is the shortest jejunal length offered, making it ideal for smaller anatomy to prevent excessive coiling in the intestinal tract.

  • Low-Profile Bolster: Sits flush against the skin, making the device discreet under clothing and minimizing the risk of accidental removal.

  • Weighted & Radiopaque: The jejunal portion features a radiopaque stripe, allowing clinicians to verify the tube’s position via X-ray or fluoroscopy.

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

Kit Contents

Primary Indications

  • Pediatric Gastroparesis: Frequently used in children whose stomachs do not empty effectively into the small intestine.

  • High Aspiration Risk: For patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding due to the risk of inhaling stomach contents.

  • Intestinal Feeding: When the stomach must be bypassed due to surgery, motility issues, or physical obstruction.
