Description

the 8270-16-1.2-30 is an Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube**.

This is a "button-style" replacement tube used for patients who require simultaneous gastric venting (decompression) and jejunal feeding. While identical in diameter and stoma length to the previous model we discussed, this version features a longer jejunal tail.

Dimensional Breakdown

  • 16: The tube has a 16 French outer diameter.

  • 1.2: The gastric stoma length (the thickness of the abdominal wall it is designed for) is 1.2 cm.

  • 30: The jejunal (distal) length is 30 cm, measured from the gastric balloon to the tip.

Key Features

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a more discreet and comfortable option than a "long" tube, which can be easily hidden under clothing.

  • Dual-Port System: * Gastric Port: Allows for the drainage of gastric fluids or air (venting) and the administration of gastric medications.

    • Jejunal Port: Used for continuous feeding directly into the small intestine.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The 30 cm jejunal portion is equipped with a weighted tip to help gravity maintain the tube's position in the small bowel and prevent "flipping" back into the stomach.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards to ensure the tube cannot be accidentally connected to intravenous or other non-enteral medical lines.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: The jejunal portion is clearly visible under X-ray or fluoroscopy, allowing clinicians to verify correct placement in the jejunum.

Technical Specifications

  • Outer Diameter: 16 Fr

  • Stoma Length: 1.2 cm

  • Jejunal Length: 30 cm

  • Material: High-clarity medical-grade silicone

  • Quantity: 1 unit per Case (CS)
