Description

This "button-style" replacement tube is designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric venting and jejunal feeding. This specific configuration is intended for patients with a 2.0 cm stoma tract and a standard-length jejunal tail.

Dimensional Breakdown

  • 16: The tube has a 16 French outer diameter.

  • 2.0: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 2.0 cm.

  • 22: The jejunal (distal) length is 22 cm, measured from the gastric balloon to the tip.

Key Features

  • Thicker Stoma Compatibility: The 2.0 cm shaft length is designed for patients with a thicker abdominal wall. This ensures the external bolster sits comfortably without being too tight, which helps prevent skin irritation or "buried bumper syndrome."

  • Standard Jejunal Length: The 22 cm length is the most common size for adults, providing enough reach past the Ligament of Treitz to ensure the tube remains securely in the small intestine.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it discreet under clothing and less likely to be snagged or pulled compared to traditional "long" G-J tubes.

  • Dual-Port Functionality:

    • Gastric Port (White): Used for removing air or fluid from the stomach (venting) and administering gastric medications.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): Specifically for continuous enteral nutrition delivery.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The distal tip is weighted to help maintain proper positioning and prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Features threaded ports that comply with ISO 80369-3 standards, ensuring only enteral-specific syringes and feeding sets can be connected.
