Traditional G-JET®
Adjustable Length Gastric-Jejunal Enteral Feeding Tube.
Cleveland, Ohio, June 1, 2020 – Applied Medical Technology, Inc. (AMT) is pleased to announce that we have expanded our G-JET® product offering to include the Traditional G-JET® gastric-jejunal enteral feeding tube. By expanding the G-JET® portfolio to include an adjustable-length option, AMT is offering both physicians and patients a more comprehensive selection of enteral feeding devices.
When compared to current options for gastric-jejunal enteral feeding, AMT’s Traditional G-JET® features larger gastric and jejunal lumens which are designed to promote flow and reduce clogging, an Exclusive AMT Balloon that creates a superior gastric seal and reduces the risk of leakage at the stoma site, and Anti-Kink Technology (16F, 18F only) to reduce the risk of kinking in the jejunal segment. AMT’s Traditional G-JET® is cleared for initial placement.
AMT’s Traditional G-JET® is offered in French sizes 14F, 16F, and 18F with jejunal lengths ranging from 15 cm to 45 cm. The adjustable bolster can accommodate stoma lengths up to 10 cm. The 16F and 18F Traditional G-JET® devices feature Anti-Kink Technology that is unique to AMT. The 14F Traditional G-JET® is an AMT exclusive!
micro G-JET®
Low Profile Pediatric G-J Enteral Feeding Tube.
Cleveland, Ohio, March 15, 2021 – Applied Medical Technology, Inc. (AMT) announced that it has expanded its family of gastric-jejunal enteral feeding tubes (G-JET®s) to include the low profile micro G-JET®. The micro G-JET® was designed to meet the enteral nutrition needs of pediatric patients. The new device is offered with gastric lengths of 0.8 cm to 2.5 cm and with jejunal lengths of 10 cm, 15 cm, 22 cm, and 30 cm.
The micro G-JET® transitions from a 14F gastric segment to an 8F jejunal segment. The 8F jejunal tubing is well-suited for the narrow lumen of the small intestine in pediatric patients; further, the 8F jejunal tubing was designed to reduce digestive problems associated with sustained pyloric opening, such as reflux of bile or chyme. The micro G-JET® is the ONLY low profile gastric-jejunal feeding device with an 8F jejunal segment.
The micro G-JET® features a low profile external bolster with clearly labeled G and J ports, AMT’s exclusive apple-shaped balloon, anti-kink protection that spans the entire length of the jejunal tubing, and a soft, atraumatic distal tip.
With the addition of the micro G-JET®, AMT can provide gastric-jejunal feeding solutions to a broad spectrum of patients including adults, children, and infants > 6 kg.
