This device is a low-profile gastrostomy button (per FDA nomenclature), a type of enteral feeding tube designed for long-term gastric access. It serves as a conduit for the administration of nutritional formulas, medications, or gastric decompression in patients with established gastrostomy tracts. Constructed from silicone, it is intended for replacement use in pre-existing stomas, providing a secure and stable interface for sustained enteral support. The design prioritises minimal profile and patient comfort while maintaining functional reliability for clinical or homecare settings.

The Low Profile Gastrostomy Feeding Tube or Gastrotomy Button is supplied sterile for single-use and is intended for insertion into a pre-established gastrostomy tract. It is classified under product code KNT and has received FDA 510(k) clearance (K122030) as substantially equivalent to predicate devices. The device is not MRI-safe unless explicitly stated in accompanying documentation, and storage conditions must adhere to manufacturer guidelines to preserve sterility and integrity. Availability is through healthcare providers or distributors authorised by Degania Silicone Ltd., Israel.

To preserve sterility and functionality, the device must be stored according to the manufacturer’s guidelines provided in the accompanying documentation. This typically includes keeping it in its original packaging, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and moisture until ready for use.

Is the Degania Low-Profile Gastrostomy Button MRI-safe?

The device is not inherently MRI-safe unless explicitly stated in the accompanying documentation. Patients and clinicians should verify compatibility with their MRI facility’s protocols before use, as silicone materials may react differently depending on the MRI machine’s specifications.
