Description
The 7170-14 is a specialized system for the primary endoscopic placement of a feeding tube directly into the jejunum (small intestine). This is used for patients who cannot tolerate gastric feeding due to issues like chronic vomiting, severe reflux, or stomach obstructions.
Key Features
Jejunal Nutrition: Specifically designed for post-pyloric feeding, bypassing the stomach to deliver nutrition directly into the small intestine.
Medical-Grade Silicone: The high-clarity silicone construction is designed for maximum flexibility, which is critical for the sensitive mucosal lining of the jejunum.
Traction Removable: Includes a collapsible internal dome bumper that allows the tube to be removed via firm traction once the stoma tract has matured, often eliminating the need for a second endoscopy.
SECUR-LOK External Bolster:* A sliding ring that secures the tube at the skin level. It features ventilation spacers that allow air to circulate around the stoma, preventing moisture-related skin breakdown.
Radiopaque Stripe: A high-contrast line runs the entire length of the tube to ensure easy position verification via X-ray or fluoroscopy.
