Product Summary
MIC-KEY* G-Tube
The most trusted gastrostomy feeding tube
MIC-KEY* G-Tubes are designed for the delivery of enteral nutrition, medication and fluids to the stomach via a primary or pre-existing gastrostomy stoma for children and adults
Sits at skin level _ Low profile so easy to conceal for greater device discretion
Radiopaque striping _ Allows clear fluoroscopic visualisation during initial placement
High performing anti-reflux valve _ Prevents backflow of gastric contents
Recessed atraumatic tip _ Prevents irritation of the opposite stomach wall and allows the balloon to invert within the shaft of the tube reducing discomfort on removal
Tapered distal tip matching tube size _ Allows easy, atraumatic insertion without stiffener
Robust design
Whilst soft and comfortable, the design of the external bolster reduces the rocking motion which avoids stomal funnelling, supports uniform, symmetrical stoma development and reduces complications
