Description

The 18 Fr diameter is a "large-bore" option for the MIC-KEY* system. It is often used for patients who require thicker, blenderized diets or frequent medication administration through the tube. The 0.8 cm length is most commonly used in pediatric or very lean adult patients.

Specifications

  • Brand: MIC-KEY* (Avanos Medical)

  • French Size (Diameter): 18 Fr

  • Stoma Length (Depth): 0.8 cm

  • Balloon Volume: 5 mL (Recommended fill; maximum capacity 10 mL)

  • Material: Medical-grade, high-clarity silicone

  • HCPCS Code: B4088

  • Connector Type: SECUR-LOK* (Lock-and-key style)

Key Features

  • Large-Bore 18 Fr Lumen: Offers the best flow rate for viscous formulas and significantly reduces the risk of clogging compared to 14 Fr or 16 Fr tubes.

  • Ultra-Short Stem: At 0.8 cm, this is the shortest available length, preventing the internal tip from irritating the back wall of the stomach in patients with very thin abdominal walls.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin for discretion and to minimize the risk of the tube being snagged on clothing.

  • Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A proximal valve that automatically closes to prevent stomach contents from leaking when the extension set is not attached.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in line visible under X-ray, allowing clinicians to verify the tube is seated correctly.
