Description

The 8270-22-1.5-45 is the maximum-reach version of the Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube* within the 22 French series.

This model is designed for patients who require the largest standard tube diameter (22 Fr) for high-viscosity nutrition and a standard stoma depth, paired with the longest available jejunal tail for maximum stability.

Product Specifications

  • Model Number: 8270-22-1.5-45

  • Outer Diameter: 22 French (Fr) — The largest standard diameter, providing a significantly wider lumen to maximize flow and minimize clogging.

  • Stoma Length: 1.5 cm — Designed for patients with an average abdominal wall thickness (15 mm).

  • Jejunal Length: 45 cm — The maximum standard jejunal length; used to reach deep into the small intestine to ensure the tip remains past the Ligament of Treitz.

  • Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable internal retention balloon made of medical-grade silicone.


Key Features

  • High-Flow Access: The 22 French size is ideal for patients who use thicker formulas or multiple crushed medications, as the larger internal diameter is the most resistant to occlusion.

  • Maximum Migration Resistance: The 45 cm tail is the primary clinical solution for preventing "retrograde migration" (the tip flipping back into the stomach) in adult patients.

  • Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, making the device discreet, comfortable, and less likely to be snagged than traditional long tubes.

  • Dual-Port System:

    • Gastric Port (White): For simultaneous venting of the stomach, decompression, or medication delivery.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): Specifically for continuous enteral feeding directly into the jejunum.

  • Weighted Distal Tip: Features a tungsten-weighted end to help gravity maintain the tube’s position deep in the small bowel.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards, featuring threaded locks to prevent accidental misconnections with IV lines.
