Description

The 8270-18-2.7-45 is the longest-reach version of the Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube* for patients requiring an 18 French diameter and a 2.7 cm stoma length.

Product Specifications

  • Model Number: 8270-18-2.7-45

  • Outer Diameter: 18 French (Fr) — Provides a wider lumen for increased flow rates and reduced risk of clogging.

  • Stoma Length: 2.7 cm — Designed for patients with an abdominal wall thickness of 27 mm.

  • Jejunal Length: 45 cm — The maximum standard length, providing deep access into the small intestine for stability.

  • Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable silicone internal anchor to secure the tube within the stomach.


Key Features

  • Maximum Jejunal Stability: The 45 cm tail is utilized for patients prone to "retrograde migration," where the tube tip flips back into the stomach.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the abdomen, offering a discreet and comfortable fit that reduces the risk of accidental dislodgment.

  • Dual-Port System:

    • Gastric Port (White): For venting, decompression, or medication delivery.

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

  • Weighted Distal Tip: Features a tungsten-weighted end to help gravity maintain the tube’s position past the Ligament of Treitz.

  • ENFit Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 safety standards to prevent accidental connection to non-enteral lines.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: Built into the silicone for clear visualization and placement confirmation under X-ray.
