Description
The 7180-24 is the high-capacity 24 French version of the MIC* GJ Feeding Tube kit. This specialized device is used for the primary endoscopic placement of a tube that provides simultaneous access to both the stomach and the small intestine. At 24 Fr, it features the largest lumen available in the GJ series, providing superior gastric decompression and the most reliable jejunal feeding for adult patients.
Key Features
Simultaneous Dual-Port Access: Features distinct ports for gastric and jejunal access. This allows for feeding into the jejunum while simultaneously venting, decompressing, or draining the stomach.
Maximum Lumen Diameter: The 24 Fr size is ideal for managing thicker gastric secretions and reducing the risk of clogging in the jejunal portion, which is common in long-pathway tubes.
Tapered Distal Tip: The jejunal portion of the tube is tapered to facilitate smooth advancement through the pylorus and into the jejunum during placement.
Traction Removable: Includes a collapsible internal dome bumper that allows the tube to be removed via firm traction through the stoma once the tract has matured, typically avoiding a second endoscopy for removal.
SECUR-LOK External Bolster:* A sliding retention ring that secures the tube at the skin. Integrated ventilation spacers allow air to circulate around the stoma, preventing moisture buildup and skin breakdown.
Strategic Radiopacity: Features high-contrast markers at both the gastric and jejunal sections to ensure accurate placement and easy position verification via X-ray or fluoroscopy.
