Description
The Avanos Side-Loading Clamp for MIC G, J, and GJ Feeding Tubes is a Roberts-style, quick-release pinch clamp designed to provide basic flow control for enteral feeding systems. Its side-loading application allows the clamp to be placed or removed from the tubing without disconnecting sets, supporting efficient workflow while maintaining tube continuity. The quick-release mechanism enables controlled occlusion and prompt restoration of flow as needs change.
Lightweight and durable, the clamp is intended to temporarily occlude the feeding tube lumen during administration adjustments and to close the tube when not in use. It supports routine management of enteral feeding in inpatient, outpatient, and home care environments.
