Description
The 2120-16-0.8 (also cataloged as 0120-16-0.8) is a skin-level "button" G-tube. The 16 Fr diameter allows for easier flow of thicker formulas and medications than the 14 Fr, while the 0.8 cm length is designed specifically for an ultra-thin abdominal wall.

Key Features
Ultra-Short Stem: The 0.8 cm length prevents the internal tip of the tube from migrating too far into the stomach or pressing against the opposite stomach wall in smaller patients.
Wider 16 Fr Lumen: Provides a larger internal diameter than the 14 Fr series, reducing the pressure required for feeding and making the tube less prone to clogging.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discreet under clothing and reducing the risk of accidental removal by the patient.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: Automatically closes when the extension set is disconnected, preventing gastric contents from leaking out onto the skin.
Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in marker that is visible under X-ray to confirm the tube is properly seated within the stomach.
