Description

The 8270-16-1.5-15 is an Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube**.

This is a specialized replacement tube for patients who require simultaneous gastric decompression and jejunal feeding. It is particularly notable for having the shortest jejunal tail length in the 16 French series, making it ideal for specific anatomical needs.

Dimensional Breakdown

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

  • 1.5: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 1.5 cm.

  • 15: The jejunal (distal) length is 15 cm, measured from the gastric balloon to the tip.

Key Features

  • Short 15 cm Jejunal Tail: This length is often selected for pediatric patients or adults with shorter gastric/duodenal anatomy where a longer tube might cause irritation or kinking in the small bowel.

  • Low-Profile Port: The external portion sits flush against the skin. It includes a white gastric port for venting or meds and a green jejunal port for feeding.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: Even at this shorter length, the tip is weighted to help maintain its position within the jejunum and prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* These threaded connectors are fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 safety standards to prevent accidental connections with IV lines or other non-enteral systems.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: The tube is made of high-clarity silicone, which is durable and allows for easy inspection of the lumen for cleanliness or clogs.
