Description

This is one of the most common "standard" sizes for adult patients. It balances the wider 18 French diameter (which is less prone to clogging than smaller sizes) with a standard 1.5 cm stoma length and a standard 22 cm jejunal tail.

Dimensional Breakdown

  • 18: The tube has an 18 French outer diameter.

  • 1.5: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 1.5 cm.

  • 22: The jejunal (distal) length is 22 cm, measured from the gastric balloon to the tip.

Key Features

  • Improved Flow Rate: The 18 French diameter provides a larger internal lumen than the 16 Fr series, making it easier to administer thicker formulas and medications with a lower risk of the tube becoming blocked.

  • Standard Jejunal Length: The 22 cm tail is designed to reach the jejunum and stay past the Ligament of Treitz, which is essential for patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the abdomen. This "button" style is preferred by many patients because it is discreet, comfortable, and less likely to be snagged on clothing.

  • Dual-Port System:

    • Gastric Port (White): Used for venting the stomach or administering gastric medications.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): Specifically for continuous enteral feeding.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: Helps the tube stay seated in the small intestine and prevents it from migrating back into the stomach.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Features threaded ports that comply with ISO 80369-3 standards, preventing accidental connection to IV lines or other non-enteral devices.
