Description

This is a "button-style" replacement tube designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric decompression and jejunal feeding. This specific model is intended for patients with a slightly thicker abdominal wall and a requirement for a very short jejunal tail.

Dimensional Breakdown

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

  • 1.7: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 1.7 cm.

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

Key Features

  • Thicker Stoma Compatibility: The 1.7 cm shaft length is designed to accommodate patients whose abdominal wall is slightly thicker than the standard 1.2 cm or 1.5 cm sizes, ensuring the external bolster does not cause pressure necrosis.

  • Short 15 cm Jejunal Tail: This length is ideal for pediatric patients or adults with shorter gastric anatomy where a standard 22 cm or 30 cm tail would be too long or prone to kinking.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a discreet and comfortable solution that is easily hidden under clothing.

  • Dual-Port System:

    • Gastric Port (White): Used for venting the stomach or administering gastric medications.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): Used for continuous feeding into the small intestine.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: Helps maintain the tube's position in the jejunum and prevents it from migrating back into the stomach.

  • ENFit Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 safety standards to prevent accidental misconnections with IV lines.
