Description
Avanos MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube is a skin-level "button" G-tube. The 16 Fr diameter is widely considered the "standard" for adult patients, providing a generous lumen for formula and medication, while the 1.5 cm length fits a moderate stoma tract depth.

Key Features
High-Flow 16 Fr Lumen: The larger diameter reduces the risk of clogs from medications and allows for faster delivery of thicker enteral formulas compared to 12 Fr or 14 Fr tubes.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the abdomen, offering a discreet profile that is easily hidden under clothing and less likely to be snagged.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A proximal valve prevents the backflow of stomach contents when the extension set is disconnected.
Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in line that is visible under X-ray, allowing clinicians to confirm the tube is seated correctly in the stomach.
Recessed Tip: When the balloon is inflated to the 5 mL volume, the distal tip is shielded by the balloon to prevent internal gastric irritation.
