Description

The Avanos 0230-14-3.0 is a MIC-KEY* Low-Profile Jejunal (J) Feeding Tube Kit. This device is specifically engineered for patients who require enteral nutrition delivered directly into the small intestine (jejunum), bypassing the stomach due to gastric motility disorders, severe reflux, or aspiration risk.

The model number indicates a 14 French diameter and a 3.0 cm stoma length. The 3.0 cm length is one of the longest stoma lengths available in the MIC-KEY* line, making it the appropriate choice for patients with a significant amount of abdominal subcutaneous tissue or those requiring extra space to accommodate post-operative swelling.

Key Features

  • Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, making the device discreet and comfortable while reducing the risk of accidental dislodgement compared to traditional "long" tubes.

  • 14 French Diameter: A standard size for jejunal feeding that provides a balance between ease of placement and the ability to deliver standard enteral formulas.

  • Trimmable 82 cm Jejunal Segment: The tube features a long distal segment made of medical-grade silicone. This segment is clinically trimmed by a physician during placement to ensure the tip terminates in the precise location within the small bowel.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone construction ensures the tube remains flexible and durable over its clinical lifespan.

  • Internal Retention Balloon: A high-quality silicone balloon (typically inflated with 3–5 mL of sterile water) keeps the tube securely in place within the jejunum.

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

  • Radiopaque Stripe & Tip: Features a weighted, radiopaque tip and a stripe along the tube for clear visualization and position confirmation under X-ray or fluoroscopy.
