Description
the 8170-20 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 20 French tube diameter and features the modern ENFit connectors* for improved patient safety.
Key Features
Safety Optimized: As a "Safety" kit, it includes safety-engineered sharps, such as a 17 G safety introducer needle and a safety scalpel, to minimize the risk of accidental needlestick injuries for the clinical team.
Push (OTW) Technique: This kit is designed for clinicians who prefer the "Push" method. In this procedure, after a guidewire is established endoscopically, the PEG tube is advanced over the wire from the outside of the body into the stomach.
Biocompatible Silicone: Constructed from high-quality medical-grade silicone, the 20 Fr tube is designed for longevity, flexibility, and patient comfort.
Internal Retention Bumper: Features a collapsible internal silicone bumper that holds the tube securely in place against the stomach wall without the need for an inflatable balloon.
ENFit Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards, these connectors are designed to prevent accidental misconnections with non-enteral systems (like IV lines) while ensuring a secure fit with feeding sets.
SECUR-LOK External Bolster:* Includes a ventilated external retention ring that holds the tube in place at the skin level and allows air circulation to help prevent stoma site irritation.
