MiniONE Balloon Button Anatomy
A gastrostomy tube, also known as a G-tube, is used to deliver nutrition (food) directly into the stomach. The device is placed through the belly, or abdominal wall, and into the stomach. G-tubes are available as “low profile”.
Low profile refers to the external portion of the device, often called the bolster, being very flat or flush against the skin. The flat/flush design means that low-profile devices are easily hidden under clothing and often referred to as “buttons.” AMT offers low-profile G-tubes for both children and adults.
The MiniONE Balloon Button has an internal retention balloon with an exclusive apple shape that keeps the device in place. For insertion and removal, the balloon can be inflated and deflated in either a clinical setting or a home-care setting. The balloon fill valve on 12-14F MiniONE Balloon devices is compatible with both Luer (slip tip) and Luer Lock syringes; the balloon fill valve on 16-24F devices is compatible with a slip tip syringe.
