Frequently asked questions
Does this device provide superior comfort during daily wear?
Yes, this kit is specifically designed for long-term patient comfort. It features a 37% lower profile external bolster compared to standard devices, which lacks hard or bulky edges to significantly reduce the risk of skin irritation and pressure-related injuries.
Is the material safe for long-term skin contact?
Absolutely. The device is crafted from medical-grade silicone, which is highly biocompatible, soft, and flexible. This material is gentle on the stoma site, promoting better hygiene and healing during extended use.
Does it help with feeding in dark rooms?
Yes, the device includes a Glo Green component, which is specifically designed to provide better visibility for caregivers during nighttime feedings, ensuring safety and ease of use in low-light conditions.
How does the design prevent leakage around the site?
The kit features a tapered transition from the shaft to the external bolster. This engineered design ensures an optimal external seal, helping to maintain hygiene and prevent leakage at the stoma site.

Is this product manufactured to high standards?
Yes, the MiniONE Gastrostomy Tube is manufactured in the United States. It is both BAA (Buy American Act) and TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, reflecting high quality and adherence to strict production standards.
Does the low-profile design help prevent accidental pulling?
Yes. Because the device sits flush against the skin with a soft, flexible bolster, it significantly reduces the likelihood of snagging on clothing or other objects, which minimizes the risk of accidental displacement or trauma.
Is the silicone material durable for daily use?
The high-quality medical-grade silicone is chosen for its flexibility and durability. It is designed to withstand the rigors of long-term enteral nutrition while remaining gentle enough to prevent tissue breakdown.
Does the kit arrive sterile and ready to use?
Yes, the entire kit is provided in a sterile package. This ensures the product is ready for immediate clinical application while maintaining the highest levels of safety and hygiene.
How do I identify the sizing after the packaging is opened?
Technical sizing information is conveniently etched directly onto the external bolster. This allows caregivers and clinicians to easily verify the size specifications (16 Fr. / 2.3 cm) even after the device is in use.
