Description
he 8270-22-2.5-45 is the maximum-reach version of the Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube* for patients with a 2.5 cm stoma tract.
Product Specifications
Model Number: 8270-22-2.5-45
Outer Diameter: 22 French (Fr) — The widest standard diameter available, providing the highest flow rate for viscous formulas and maximum resistance to clogging.
Stoma Length: 2.5 cm — Sized for patients with an abdominal wall thickness of 25 mm to ensure a proper fit that avoids skin irritation.
Jejunal Length: 45 cm — The maximum standard tail length available; used to ensure the tip remains deep in the small intestine.
Balloon Volume: 7–10 ml — Inflatable silicone balloon for internal retention in the stomach.
Key Features
High-Flow Capacity: The 22 Fr diameter is the optimal choice for patients who require faster delivery or have a history of tube occlusions with smaller diameters (like 16 or 18 Fr).
Maximum Migration Prevention: The 45 cm tail, combined with a weighted tip, is the primary clinical solution to prevent "retrograde migration" (the tube flipping back into the stomach).
Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin. This design is highly discreet, comfortable, and significantly reduces the risk of accidental removal compared to traditional long tubes.
Dual-Port System:
Gastric Port (White): For simultaneous gastric decompression, venting, or medication delivery.
Jejunal Port (Green): Dedicated specifically for continuous enteral nutrition into the small bowel.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: Helps gravity maintain the tube’s position past the Ligament of Treitz for stable intestinal feeding.
ENFit Safety Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 safety standards to prevent accidental misconnections with IV lines.
