Description

The 8230-14-4.0 is the deepest available configuration of the Avanos MIC-KEY Jejunal (J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube* in the 14 French series.

This J-only device is specifically designed for patients with significant abdominal wall thickness who require direct small-bowel access without a gastric venting port.

Product Specifications

  • Model Number: 8230-14-4.0

  • Outer Diameter: 14 French (Fr) — A slim, small-diameter profile often used for pediatric patients or adults with narrower stoma sites.

  • Stoma Length: 4.0 cm — The maximum standard shaft length, designed for patients with a 40 mm abdominal wall thickness to prevent "buried bumper syndrome" or skin pressure.

  • Jejunal Length: 51 cm — The standard length for the "J-only" series; the tube is intended to be trimmed to size by a clinician during placement to match the patient’s internal anatomy.

  • Balloon Volume: 3–5 ml — Inflatable medical-grade silicone balloon for internal retention.


Key Features

  • Anatomical Customization: The extra-long 51 cm distal segment allows the clinician to cut the tube to the precise length needed for optimal placement past the Ligament of Treitz.

  • Deep Stoma Accommodation: The 4.0 cm shaft ensures a safe and comfortable fit for patients with deeper stoma tracts, preventing the bolster from digging into the skin.

  • Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the abdomen, providing a discreet, comfortable solution that is significantly less likely to be snagged or pulled than traditional long tubes.

  • Direct Jejunal Feeding: Used 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 IV lines.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity construction allows for easy monitoring of flow, with a radiopaque stripe for confirmation of placement under X-ray.
