Description

The Avanos 0270-18-1.5-45 is a MIC-KEY Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (GJ) Feeding Tube Kit*. This configuration is designed for patients with a 1.5 cm stoma who require the maximum available internal tube length to ensure proper placement deep within the small intestine.

The model number specifies its dimensions: 18 Fr diameter, a 1.5 cm stoma (bolster) length, and a 45 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.

  • Common Stoma Size: The 1.5 cm stoma length is a standard size for pediatric and lean adult patients, ensuring a secure fit against the abdominal wall.

  • Extended Jejunal Reach: The 45 cm internal tube is the longest standard length available, designed for taller patients or those whose anatomy requires deeper placement to prevent the tip from migrating back into the stomach.

  • 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
