Description

The Avanos 0270-22-1.5-45 is a MIC-KEY* Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This low-profile (button-style) device is specifically designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric decompression and enteral nutrition delivered directly into the jejunum.

The model number specifies the dimensions: 22 French diameter, a 1.5 cm stoma length, and an extended 45 cm jejunal tube length.

Key Features

  • Higher Flow Diameter (22 Fr): The 22 French diameter is larger than the standard 18 Fr, allowing for faster delivery of thicker nutritional formulas and more efficient gastric decompression.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a discreet and comfortable fit that reduces the risk of accidental dislodgement or skin irritation compared to traditional "long" G-J tubes.

  • Dual-Access Ports: The external base features separate, clearly labeled ports for gastric and jejunal access. This allows for venting the stomach while feeding into the small intestine simultaneously.

  • Extended Jejunal Segment (45 cm): The 45 cm length ensures the tube terminates deep within the jejunum, which is critical for patients with high reflux risk or those who require the tube to remain distal to the ligament of Treitz.

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: Constructed from high-clarity, biocompatible silicone that is durable and flexible.

  • Radiopaque Weighted Tip: Includes a tungsten-weighted distal tip to help maintain placement and a radiopaque stripe for easy visualization during X-ray or fluoroscopic confirmation.

  • Severe Gastroparesis: When the stomach is unable to empty contents into the small intestine effectively.

  • Gastric Outlet Obstruction: Providing a way to vent/drain the stomach to relieve pressure while maintaining a nutritional route distally.

  • Intestinal Motility Disorders: Used when long-term jejunal feeding is the primary source of nutrition.
