Product Specifications
Model Number: 8270-18-2.0-30
Outer Diameter: 18 French (Fr) — Provides a larger lumen for better flow and reduced clogging compared to 16 Fr models.
Stoma Length: 2.0 cm — Measures the thickness of the abdominal wall; ideal for patients with standard to slightly thicker tissue.
Jejunal Length: 30 cm — Measured from the gastric balloon to the distal tip; used for patients requiring a deeper reach into the small intestine.
Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable internal anchor to keep the tube in place.
Key Features
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin ("button" style), making it discreet and less likely to be snagged on clothing.
Dual-Port System:
Gastric Port (White): For stomach decompression, venting, or medication.
Jejunal Port (Green): For continuous enteral nutrition delivery.
Weighted Tip: Features a tungsten-weighted distal end to help maintain position in the jejunum and prevent migration back into the stomach.
High-Clarity Silicone: Allows for easier visualization of flow and potential blockages.
ENFit Connectors:* Standardized threaded ports to prevent accidental misconnections with IV lines.
