Description

The 2120-18-1.0 (also cataloged as 0120-18-1.0) is a skin-level "button" G-tube. The 18 Fr diameter is a "large-bore" option, and the 1.0 cm length is a standard size for patients with a relatively thin abdominal wall who require higher flow rates for their nutritional needs.

Specifications

  • Brand: MIC-KEY* (Avanos Medical)

  • French Size (Diameter): 18 Fr

  • Stoma Length (Depth): 1.0 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

  • High-Flow Diameter: The 18 Fr lumen is wider than the 14 Fr and 16 Fr models, making it significantly easier to administer viscous (thick) formulas and blenderized diets.

  • Short Stoma Length: The 1.0 cm depth is ideal for lean adults or older children, ensuring the internal tip does not migrate too far into the gastric cavity.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin for a discreet appearance 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 out when the extension set is not in use.

  • Tapered Distal Tip: Designed for smooth, atraumatic insertion into an established stoma tract.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: Included for radiographic (X-ray) visualization to confirm the tube is seated correctly against the gastric wall.
