Description
The 8270-18-2.3-45 is the longest-tail version of the Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube* for patients with a 2.3 cm stoma.
Product Specifications
Model Number: 8270-18-2.3-45
Outer Diameter: 18 French (Fr) — The wider lumen helps prevent clogging and is ideal for high-viscosity formulas.
Stoma Length: 2.3 cm — Fits a thicker abdominal wall (23 mm), preventing the "button" from being too tight against the skin.
Jejunal Length: 45 cm — The maximum standard length; provides deep access into the small intestine to ensure stable placement and bypass the stomach entirely.
Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable internal retention balloon to secure the device.
Key Features
Maximum Jejunal Reach: The 45 cm tail is specialized for patients who experience tube migration (where the tube flips back into the stomach) with shorter versions.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the abdomen, offering a discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional "long" tubes.
Dual-Port System:
Gastric Port (White): For gastric decompression, venting, or medication.
Jejunal Port (Green): For continuous enteral nutrition.
Weighted Tip: Features a tungsten-weighted distal end to help gravity maintain the tube’s position past the Ligament of Treitz.
Safety Connectors: Utilizes ENFit* threaded ports (ISO 80369-3) to eliminate the risk of accidental misconnections with IV lines.
Radiopaque Stripe: Built into the silicone for clear visualization during placement or position checks under X-ray.
