Description

The Avanos 0270-18-3.0-45 is a MIC-KEY* Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This low-profile (button-style) device is engineered for patients who require simultaneous gastric decompression and enteral nutrition delivered directly into the jejunum.

The model number specifies the dimensions: 18 French diameter, a 3.0 cm stoma length, and an extended 45 cm jejunal tube length. The 3.0 cm stoma length is specifically designed for patients with a thicker abdominal wall.

Key Features

  • Dual-Port System: Features separate, labeled ports for gastric and jejunal access. The gastric port allows for venting or drainage of the stomach, while the jejunal port is for the delivery of nutrition and medication.

  • Extended Jejunal Reach: The 45 cm jejunal segment is designed for patients who need the tube to terminate further into the small intestine to optimize nutrient absorption or to prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it more discreet and comfortable. The "button" style reduces the risk of accidental dislodgement compared to traditional long tubes.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone that is durable yet flexible, minimizing skin irritation at the stoma site.

  • Weighted Radiopaque Tip: The jejunal portion features a tungsten-weighted tip to help maintain placement in the small intestine and a radiopaque stripe for easy visualization during X-ray or fluoroscopic confirmation.

  • SECUR-LOK* Connection: Employs a specialized locking mechanism for extension sets to prevent accidental disconnects during active feeding cycles.

Primary Indications

  • Chronic Aspiration Risk: For patients who reflux gastric contents, requiring feeding to bypass the stomach entirely.

  • Severe Gastroparesis: When the stomach does not empty effectively into the small intestine.

  • Gastric Outlet Obstruction: Providing a way to vent/drain the stomach while maintaining a nutritional route distally.

  • Anatomical Requirements: The 3.0 cm stoma length is ideal for patients with a higher BMI or post-operative swelling.
