Description
the 8170-14 is an Avanos MIC Safety Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) Kit**. This kit is designed for the initial endoscopic placement of a gastrostomy feeding tube using the "Push" (Over-the-Guidewire) technique.
The model number specifies a 14 French tube diameter—the smallest standard diameter in the MIC* PEG line—and features ENFit connectors* for enhanced patient safety.
Key Features
Small 14 Fr Diameter: This thinner tube is often selected for patients with smaller anatomy or for specific clinical situations where a narrower stoma is preferred.
Safety Optimized: As part of the "Safety" series, it includes safety-engineered sharps, such as a 17 G safety introducer needle and a safety scalpel, to protect the clinical team from accidental needlestick injuries.
Push (OTW) Technique: In this procedure, once the physician establishes a guidewire endoscopically, the PEG tube is "pushed" over the wire from the outside of the body into the stomach.
Biocompatible Silicone: The tube is made from high-grade medical silicone, which is durable, flexible, and designed for long-term comfort.
Internal Retention Bumper: Features a collapsible internal silicone bumper that secures the tube against the stomach wall. This design eliminates the need for an inflatable balloon, which can sometimes fail over long periods.
ENFit Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards, these connectors prevent accidental misconnections with non-enteral systems (like IV lines) while ensuring a secure fit with feeding sets.
