Description

The 8270-16-2.5-45 is an Avanos MIC-KEY Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Low-Profile Feeding Tube**.

This model provides the maximum jejunal reach within the 16 French series for patients with a 2.5 cm stoma. It is a "button-style" replacement tube designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric venting and jejunal feeding, but need the tip to reside deep within the small intestine for maximum stability.

Dimensional Breakdown

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

  • 2.5: The stoma length (abdominal wall thickness) is 2.5 cm.

  • 45: The jejunal (distal) length is 45 cm, measured from the top of the gastric balloon to the weighted tip.

Key Features

  • Extra-Long 45 cm Jejunal Tail: This length is specialized for adult patients who have significant issues with the tube migrating back into the stomach (retrograde migration) or those with specific surgical anatomy that requires feeding further down the intestinal tract.

  • 2.5 cm Stoma Length: The shaft is designed to accommodate a thicker abdominal wall. This ensures the external bolster does not exert excessive pressure on the skin, which helps prevent pressure necrosis and "buried bumper syndrome."

  • Low-Profile Design: The external portion sits flush against the abdomen. This is more comfortable and discreet for the patient than traditional "long" tubes and is less likely to be accidentally dislodged or snagged.

  • Dual-Port Functionality:

    • Gastric Port (White): For decompression, venting, or administering gastric medications.

    • Jejunal Port (Green): For the continuous delivery of enteral nutrition directly into the jejunum.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The 45 cm tail is equipped with a weighted tip to help gravity keep the tube properly positioned past the Ligament of Treitz.

  • ENFit Safety Connectors:* Fully compliant with ISO 80369-3 standards to prevent accidental connections with IV lines or other non-enteral medical systems.
