Description
The 8230-14-2.5 is an Avanos MIC-KEY Jejunal (J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube*.

Product Specifications
Model Number: 8230-14-2.5
Outer Diameter: 14 French (Fr) — A slim, small-diameter profile often used for pediatric patients or adults with narrow stoma tracts.
Stoma Length: 2.5 cm — Sized for patients with an abdominal wall thickness of 25 mm.
Jejunal Length: 51 cm — The standard length for this series; the tube is designed to be trimmed to size by a clinician during the surgical placement to fit the patient's anatomy.
Balloon Volume: 3–5 ml — Inflatable internal retention balloon made of medical-grade silicone.
Key Features
Trimmable Tail: The 51 cm distal segment allows for precise customization. The clinician cuts the tube to the exact length needed to ensure the tip is seated correctly in the jejunum.
Low-Profile Design: The external "button" sits flush against the skin. This design is highly discreet, comfortable, and significantly reduces the risk of accidental removal or snagging compared to traditional long tubes.
Direct Jejunal Access: Used specifically for patients who must bypass the stomach for all nutrition and medication delivery (e.g., due to gastric motility issues or surgery).
ENFit Safety Connector:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 safety standards, featuring a threaded port to prevent accidental misconnections with IV or non-enteral lines.
Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity construction allows for easy monitoring of flow, while a radiopaque stripe ensures the tube can be easily located under X-ray.
