Description
The 8230-14-3.5 is an Avanos MIC-KEY Jejunal (J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube*.
This is a J-only device designed for patients with significant abdominal wall thickness who require direct access to the small intestine for nutrition and medication without the need for a gastric port.
Product Specifications
Model Number: 8230-14-3.5
Outer Diameter: 14 French (Fr) — A slim, small-diameter profile often used for pediatric patients or adults with narrower stoma sites.
Stoma Length: 3.5 cm — Designed for patients with an abdominal wall thickness of 35 mm, ensuring a comfortable fit for deep stoma tracts without skin compression.
Jejunal Length: 51 cm — The standard length for the "J-only" series; the tube is designed to be trimmed to size by a clinician during the placement procedure.
Balloon Volume: 3–5 ml — Inflatable internal retention balloon made of medical-grade silicone for secure anchoring.
Key Features
Trimmable Distal Tip: The 51 cm distal segment allows for anatomical customization. The clinician trims the tube to the specific length required to ensure the tip is properly seated in the jejunum.
Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a discreet and comfortable fit that reduces the risk of the tube being snagged, pulled, or accidentally dislodged.
Direct Jejunal Feeding: Specifically utilized for patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding or who require nutrition to bypass the stomach entirely.
ENFit Safety Connector:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards, featuring a threaded port to prevent accidental misconnections with non-enteral systems like IV lines.
Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity material allows for easy visual inspection of the lumen, while an embedded radiopaque stripe allows for position verification under X-ray.
