Description

This model combines a larger 18 French diameter with a standard 1.5 cm stoma height and an extended 30 cm jejunal tail. It is a preferred choice for adult patients who require a higher flow rate and extra tube length to ensure the tip stays properly positioned in the small intestine.

Dimensional Breakdown

  • 18: The tube has an 18 French outer diameter, which offers a larger internal lumen to reduce the risk of clogging from thicker formulas.

  • 1.5: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 1.5 cm, fitting the average adult stoma tract.

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

Key Features

  • Extended Jejunal Reach: The 30 cm tail provides extra security for patients whose tubes may otherwise "flip" back into the stomach. This length ensures the tip sits deep enough in the jejunum to maintain continuous feeding.

  • Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discreet under clothing and more comfortable for active patients than traditional long tubes.

  • Dual-Port Functionality:

    • Gastric Port (White): Used for removing gas or fluid from the stomach (venting) and administering gastric meds.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): Specifically for continuous enteral nutrition.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal end is weighted to help gravity maintain the tube's position and resist the natural movement (peristalsis) that can cause migration.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards, featuring threaded locks that prevent accidental misconnections with IV lines.
