MICKEY BUTTON & ENTENSION SETS
MIC*-KEY Low Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tubes
- The MIC*-KEY* Low-Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tubes (Figure 3) are indicated for use in
- patients who require long-term feeding, are unable to tolerate oral feeding, who are at low risk
- for aspiration, require gastric decompression and/or medication delivery directly into the
- stomach. They are sterile, single patient use device for use up to 90 days.
- The MIC*-KEY* Low-Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube is unobtrusive and easy to conceal.
- Minimal external surface area allows air circulation around the stoma. Ease of care encourages
- patient involvement and self-sufficiency. Range of 62 sizes helps ensure a comfortable, proper fit
- to minimize the chance of gastric leakage. Proximal anti-reflux valve. Tapered distal tip recessed
- at 5ml. All sterilized with Ethylene Oxide.
- The MIC*-KEY* low-profile gastrostomy feeding tube (MIC*-KEY* G-tube) is inserted into the
- stomach through the abdominal wall. There is an inflatable balloon at one end and an external
- base or external retention disc at the other. This tube allows for intake of food and water for
- patients through continuous or bolus feeding in conjunction with a continuous or bolus feed
- MIC*-KEY Extension Set.
- The MIC*-KEY G-tube consists of key features including the external base, the feeding port and
- the balloon valve. The external base consists of 3 parts: the feeding port, closure cap and the
- balloon port. The external base or retention disc holds the tube in place yet allows air circulation
- to the skin around and underneath it. The feeding port houses an anti-reflux valve. This helps
- prevent stomach contents from leaking out of the tube once the closure cap is opened. Once the
- patient end of the extension set is connected to the tube, the anti-reflux valve will open, allowing
- the administration of tube feeds or medication or the aspiration of gastric contents. The
- extension set can also be used for venting. This is also called decompression or burping.
- Gastrostomy Tubes (G-tubes) are placed into a stoma and held in place by an internal retention
- balloon. Water is injected into the balloon through the balloon inflation port to hold the tube in
- place. The balloon is inflated and deflated by inserting a luer slip syringe into the balloon
- insufflation port or balloon valve.
- The MIC*-KEY* Low-Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube is intended to connect to the MIC*-KEY*
- Extension Sets with ENFit® Connectors for feeding . The MIC*-KEY* Extension Sets with ENFit®
- Connectors are intended to connect to Enteral Feeding Syringes with ENFit® Connectors and
- Feed Administration Bags with ENFit® Connectors. Refer to DHFE-09537 Technical
- Documentation File for MIC-KEY Extension Sets.
