Traditional Length Family of G-Tubes
Balloon, Capsule Monarch® and Capsule Dome Enteral Tubes.
A traditional length g-tube, which can also be referred to as a PEG (percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy) tube or a “high profile” G-tube, is an enteral feeding device designed to aid in the delivery of nutrients, fluids, and medications, directly into the stomach bypassing the mouth and esophagus. A traditional length G-tube or “high profile” tube extends off the abdomen about 7-10cm compared to a low-profile G-tube, which is flush against the skin.
AMT has three main traditional length G-tubes. These devices are placed through the abdominal wall to give direct access to the stomach and has an adjustable external bolster minimizing surface contact with the skin, allowing the tissue to breathe and can be adjusted up to 10cm in length.
