The MiniONE Family of G-Tubes

The More Comfortable Alternative for Enteral Feeding

As a caregiver or patient, we believe you have a right to the most comfortable and reliable gastrostomy tubes, thats why we developed the MiniONE line of buttons. Whether you use our Balloon or Non-Balloon g-tube designs, we strive to provide the comfort and confidence you deserve, minimizing leaks, balloon breaks and granulation tissue.

As the Leader in Enteral Device Innovation, we were present at the birth and development of the Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) movement. Our founder co-invented the very first low profile feeding device, often called a button g-tube, which we manufactured for distribution by others.

MiniONE Balloon Button

The MiniONE Balloon Button product line offers a 37% lower profile external bolster and is made from the highest grade medical silicone to reduce skin irritation and improve patient comfort. The soft and flexible external bolster is easy to clean and less bulky. Available in 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 and 24F with varying stoma length sizes ranging from 0.8cm through 6.5cm.

Locking Feed Sets

What is ENFit

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has created a new standard design for enteral connectors, termed the "ENFit Connector."

These new ENFit Connectors are intended to improve patient safety and to decrease the risk of medical device misconnections. This new connector has been designed to be incompatible with Luer adapters, which are commonly used in IV applications. The ENFit connector will look & secure very similar to a Luer threaded lock system, although the design is larger and thus, incompatible with Luers.

Why ENFit?

ENFit is a patient safety initiative, designed to ensure that feeding tube connectors are incompatible with the connectors for unrelated delivery systems such as trach tubes, IV lines, and catheters. Misconnections involving such medical devices may be relatively rare compared with the number of patients needing tubes or IVs, but such misconnections can have deadly consequences when they do occur.

ENFit is a global initiative that affects end users, manufacturers, and suppliers. The ENFit Connectors were developed as part of the Stay Connected initiative under the supervision of clinicians, manufacturers, and regulators.

What is AMTs Role?

AMT will be in compliance with the enteral connector requirements of ISO 80369-3, better known as ENFit, established by the governing bodies to manage the changeover. During the interim period, AMT has made enteral feeding transition adapters available to smooth the transition while continuing to protect patients.

What Does this Mean for You?

What is changing is how you connect your food source to the feed set, which in turn connects to an enteral feeding device. The straight or right angle connectors, which attach and lock into low-profile feeding devices, will remain the same. The distal end of feed sets, which connect directly into the device, are not regulated at this time. However, the proximal side of the feed set, your bolus or y-port adapters, will begin to incorporate the ENFit design into newly created product lines.
