Description
he 8270-22-2.0-45 is a high-capacity, maximum-length configuration of the Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube*.
This model is typically selected for adult patients who have a standard to slightly thick abdominal wall and require the largest available diameter for nutrition combined with the longest possible tail for stability.
Product Specifications
Model Number: 8270-22-2.0-45
Outer Diameter: 22 French (Fr) — The widest standard diameter available, offering the highest flow rate and the greatest resistance to clogging.
Stoma Length: 2.0 cm — Designed for patients with an abdominal wall thickness of 20 mm, ensuring a comfortable fit that isn't too tight against the skin.
Jejunal Length: 45 cm — The maximum standard length available to ensure the tip remains deep in the jejunum.
Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable silicone balloon for internal retention.
Key Features
High-Flow Lumen: The 22 Fr diameter is the clinical "gold standard" for patients using high-viscosity or fiber-enriched formulas, as well as those needing frequent medication administration through the tube.
Maximum Migration Prevention: The 45 cm tail, combined with a weighted tip, is specifically used to prevent the tube from flipping back into the stomach (retrograde migration), which is a common issue in patients with high intestinal motility.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the abdomen. This "button" style is preferred for its discretion and significantly reduced risk of being snagged or pulled compared to traditional long tubes.
Dual-Port Access:
Gastric Port (White): For stomach decompression, venting gas, or administering medications.
Jejunal Port (Green): For continuous delivery of enteral nutrition into the small intestine.
Weighted Distal Tip: Features tungsten weights to help maintain the tube’s position past the Ligament of Treitz.
ENFit Safety Connectors:* Compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards to prevent accidental connection to IV lines or other non-enteral devices.
