Indications for Use: Gastrostomy Tubes are indicated for use in a well-established gastrostomy tract for feeding and/or administration of medications. They also may be used for gastric decompression.
Contraindications for Use:
Do not use the tube for patients with the following conditions:
Allergy to silicone
Gastrocutaneous fistulas
Non-established stoma tract
Evidence of granulation tissue
Infection or irritation of the stoma
Storage: The Gastrostomy Tube should be stored in the original packaging at room temperature, and in a dry environment. Avoid direct sunlight and heat radiation.
Care and Maintenance
Inspect the stoma site frequently by lifting the edges of the retention disk. Gently clean with warm water and soap. If there is any evidence of infection, irritation or granulation consult a physician at once.
After every use flush the tube with 10-20 mL of water for adults and 5-10 mL for children, before and after each feeding or administration of medication or every 4-8 hours if feeding is continuous.
To ensure proper balloon inflation, check the balloon's fluid level every 7-10 days. It is normal for water to migrate out of the balloon. If the quantity is below the original inflated amount, refill the balloon to the proper quantity using fresh water. Replacing the balloon fluid every 7-10 days is the best way to maintain the integrity of the balloon and the inflation channel. If the balloon continues to deflate, replace the tube.
If deflation of the balloon with a syringe is difficult, it is possible that the inflation channel has become occluded. In case of occlusion, replace the tube.
WARNINGS
For enteral/gastrostomy use only.
Verify expiration date. Please do not use it after this date.
Do not nick, cut, tear, puncture, or otherwise damage the device
Always confirm that the feeding set is connected to the enteral port only and NOT to an IV set.
Gastrostomy Tubes are for single use only. Do not reuse, reprocess, or resterilize. Reuse may cause a risk of infection and compromise functional reliability. Do not use it if the package is open or damaged.
