Description

The Avanos 0230-14-2.7 is a MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Jejunal (J) Feeding Tube Kit. This specialized enteral access device is designed for patients who require nutrition delivered directly into the small intestine (jejunum), bypassing the stomach.

This model features a 14 French diameter and a 2.7 cm stoma length. The 2.7 cm length is specifically engineered for patients with a thicker abdominal wall or those who require extra clearance due to localized post-surgical swelling, ensuring the "button" sits comfortably without embedding into the skin.

Key Features

  • Low-Profile Design: The external bolster (the "button") sits flush against the skin. This improves patient body image, comfort, and safety by minimizing the profile that could be snagged by clothing or bedding.

  • 14 French Diameter: A narrow-gauge tube that is common in jejunal feeding to minimize the stoma size while still allowing for the infusion of standard enteral formulas.

  • Trimmable 82 cm Jejunal Segment: The tube is manufactured with a long distal segment. During the placement procedure, a clinician trims the silicone tubing to the exact length required to reach the target area in the small bowel.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Built with high-clarity, biocompatible silicone for flexibility and durability.

  • Inflatable Retention Balloon: A silicone internal balloon holds the tube securely in the jejunum. For 14 Fr tubes, the recommended fill volume is typically 3–5 mL of sterile water.

  • Anti-Reflux Valve: A built-in valve in the proximal head prevents the backflow of intestinal contents when the extension set is not attached.

  • Radiopaque Stripe & Tip: The tube features a radiopaque stripe and a weighted tip to facilitate visualization and position confirmation under X-ray or fluoroscopy.
