For many patients, long‑term enteral feeding is part of everyday life – and the choice of device can make a real difference to comfort, confidence and care. With the new Medicina GFit Button and GFit Tube, we take a closer look at how thoughtful design can support both patients and healthcare professionals.

GFit Button

A gastrostomy button is a tube inserted through the abdominal wall directly into the stomach, allowing the free passage of food and water. The Medicina Low Profile Gastrostomy Button (GFit Button) is designed to provide enteral access for patients who require long-term nutritional support, while maintaining a low profile on the skin surface to support everyday activities and comfort.

The GFit Button is available in a range of sizes, enabling healthcare professionals to select an option appropriate for individual patient needs.

Key features of the GFit Button:

• Biocompatible silicone
• Low-profile design
• Range of size options
• Suitable for long-term use
• Designed for ease of care and cleaning

To support implementation in clinical practice, additional materials are available, including instructions for use (IFU), a product brochure and an instructional video.

GFit Tube

A gastrostomy is a stoma tract that provides direct access into the stomach, allowing nutritional support while bypassing the mouth and throat. The Medicina GFit Tube is a feeding tube that provides direct access to the stomach once the tract has been established.

GFit Tubes are secured using an internal balloon and an external skin disc. This construction allows placement and exchange on an outpatient basis or in the community, helping to reduce the burden on hospital-based care.

Key features of the GFit Tube:

• Made of high-quality medical grade silicone
• Range of size options
• Suitable for long-term use

As with the GFit Button, a full set of resources and support is available, including instructions for use (IFU), brochure and video, to assist clinicians in safe handling, placement, and ongoing care.
