Description

The 8270-18-2.5-45 is the longest-tail version of the Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube* for patients with a 2.5 cm stoma.

Product Specifications

  • Model Number: 8270-18-2.5-45

  • Outer Diameter: 18 French (Fr) — The larger lumen diameter helps prevent clogging and is ideal for high-viscosity formulas.

  • Stoma Length: 2.5 cm — Designed for patients with an abdominal wall thickness of 25 mm, providing a comfortable fit for deeper stoma tracts.

  • Jejunal Length: 45 cm — The maximum standard length; provides deep access into the small intestine to ensure stable placement and bypass the stomach.

  • Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable internal retention balloon used to secure the device within the stomach.


Key Features

  • Maximum Jejunal Reach: The 45 cm tail is specialized for patients who experience frequent retrograde 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 that is less likely to be snagged.

  • Dual-Port System:

    • Gastric Port (White): For gastric decompression, venting gas, or administering medication.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): For continuous enteral nutrition delivery directly into the small bowel.

  • 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 medical-grade silicone for clear visualization during placement or position checks under X-ray.
