Description

The Avanos 0270-22-3.5-45 is a MIC-KEY* Gastric-Jejunal (G-J) Feeding Tube Kit. This low-profile, button-style device is designed for patients who require simultaneous gastric decompression and enteral nutrition delivered directly into the small intestine.

The model number specifies the dimensions: 22 French diameter, a 3.5 cm stoma length, and an extended 45 cm jejunal tube length. This specific configuration is intended for patients with a thicker abdominal wall who also require a longer jejunal reach.

Key Features

  • High-Flow 22 French Diameter: This larger lumen diameter is less prone to clogging and allows for more efficient venting and drainage of the stomach compared to smaller French sizes.

  • Dual-Access Port System: The external base contains two separate, clearly labeled ports. The Gastric port allows for venting air or draining fluid from the stomach, while the Jejunal port provides a direct route for nutrition and medication into the small intestine.

  • Extended Stoma Length (3.5 cm): One of the longest stoma lengths available, this size is specifically designed for patients with significant subcutaneous tissue or post-surgical swelling to ensure the device sits comfortably without causing skin breakdown.

  • 45 cm Jejunal Segment: The extra-long jejunal tube ensures the tip terminates deep within the jejunum, which helps prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach and optimizes nutrient absorption.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin, making it more discreet and reducing the risk of accidental "pull-outs" compared to traditional long G-J tubes.

  • Tungsten-Weighted Radiopaque Tip: Features a weighted tip to help maintain placement and a radiopaque stripe along the tube for easy confirmation of position under X-ray or fluoroscopy.

  • Chronic Aspiration Risk: For patients who reflux gastric contents, requiring feeding to bypass the stomach entirely.

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

  • Anatomical Fit: Specifically for patients with a deeper stoma tract or higher BMI.
