Frequently asked questions
Is this device made from high-grade materials?
Yes, the MiniONE Gastrostomy Tube is fabricated from the highest grade medical silicone. This material is chosen for its biocompatibility, superior flexibility, and long-term durability for patient use.
Does the design help prevent skin irritation?
Absolutely. It features a 37% lower profile external bolster compared to traditional designs. This reduction in bulk, combined with the soft, flexible silicone construction, significantly minimizes trauma and irritation to the sensitive skin around the stoma site.
Is it easy to see for nighttime feedings?
Yes, the device incorporates ‘Glo Green’ features. These specialized components are designed to increase visibility, making it much easier and safer for caregivers to manage feedings during low-light or nighttime sessions.
Does it provide a secure seal against the skin?
The device is engineered with a tapered shaft-to-bolster transition. This specific design ensures a tighter and more secure external seal, which helps prevent leakage and improves overall comfort.

Is this a standardized medical size?
This model is specified as 24 Fr. with a 2.0 cm tube length. Please ensure this size matches the clinician’s prescription for the patient’s specific stoma requirements.
Why is the lower profile design beneficial?
The 37% lower profile is a key benefit for daily quality of life. It eliminates the bulky components found in traditional feeding tubes, allowing the device to lay flatter against the body, which prevents snagging and makes the tube less obtrusive under clothing.
