Description

This configuration is popular for adult patients who require the larger 18 French lumen for thicker formulas and have a slightly deeper stoma tract, but need the added stability of a 30 cm jejunal tail.

Dimensional Breakdown

  • 18: The tube has an 18 French outer diameter, which offers a larger internal lumen than the 16 Fr series to help prevent clogging.

  • 1.7: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 1.7 cm, designed for patients whose stoma tract is slightly deeper than the standard 1.5 cm.

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

Key Features

  • Extended 30 cm Jejunal Tail: This length is typically selected for taller patients or those whose intestinal motility tends to displace shorter 22 cm tubes. The extra length helps ensure the tip remains well past the Ligament of Treitz.

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

  • Dual-Port System:

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

    • Jejunal Port (Green): Dedicated specifically for continuous enteral nutrition delivery.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal end is weighted to help gravity maintain the tube's position in the small bowel and prevent "retrograde migration" (flipping back into the stomach).

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards, ensuring only enteral-specific syringes and feeding sets can be connected.
