• A balloon may leak or lose water over time due to medicines, stomach acid, G-Tube care, or natural wear.
  • ALWAYS have a stoma plug or a spare G-Tube available in case the balloon on the MiniONE® breaks. Your back-up device should match the same size/length as your current MiniONE® device. By inserting your spare stoma plug/G-Tube into the stoma, you will help to keep the stoma tract from closing. Follow the Directions for Use and your healthcare provider training to properly place the G-Tube in the stoma.
    • Inserting a device that is too long or too short into your stoma site is not recommended.
