MIC-KEY Low-Profile GJ Feeding Tube

Description

Avanos Medical – MIC-KEY Low-Profile Gastric-Jejunal (GJ) Feeding Tube Kit (ENFit) is a skin-level enteral device placed through a gastric stoma with the distal limb positioned in the jejunum. It supports simultaneous jejunal feeding and gastric decompression for pediatric and adult patients.

Intended Use

• Provides post-pyloric (jejunal) feeding while allowing gastric decompression or venting through a separate lumen.
• Designed for low-profile, skin-level access to support patient comfort and discretion.

Design and Ports

• Low-profile “button” with external bolster; retained by an internal inflatable balloon.
• Three access points on the external bolster:
  • JEJUNAL: feeding
  • GASTRIC: decompression/venting
  • BAL: balloon inflation/deflation
• One-way valves in the JEJUNAL and GASTRIC ports open when a MIC-KEY extension set is attached.
• No dedicated medication port; medications are delivered via the jejunal or gastric port per clinical direction.

Connectivity and Extension Sets

• ENFit connectivity (feed set connector type: ENFit) to help standardize enteral-only connections.
• Kit includes MIC-KEY ENFit extension sets to access the ports; extensions are available for continuous and bolus feeding.

Key Features

• Weighted jejunal portion to help maintain placement in the jejunum.
• Multiple jejunal exit ports for feeding distribution.
