The AMT MINI Classic Balloon Button is a silicone device that is inserted into a gastrostomy to provide direct access to the stomach for feeding, decompression and medication. It has been designed as a low-profile (skin level) feeding device to offer the patient a higher level of comfort and mobility when compared to traditional P.E.G.'s or G-Tubes. The MINI Balloon Button's low-profile design allows the patient to be more active and receive the exercise necessary to maintain health.
The AMT MINI(tm) Classic Balloon Button combines the features of a button and the ease of placement of a balloon device.
The AMT MINI Classic Balloon Button Kit contains both the MINITM Balloon Button and the Patient Care Kit. The MINITM Balloon Button is the size and length prescribed by the physician. It includes one 10cc luer tip syringe used to inflate the silicone balloon through the balloon valve and to administer medications through the med port of the Right Angle Feeding Set, and two 4" x 4" sterile gauze .
Results in greater comfort and easier cleaning around stoma site.

My daughter has had a feeding button since she was 7 months old. Her previous button was Kimberly-Clark's Mic-Key button with the hard stem. They lasted well over a year each.
This last one was changed out in August using the MINI ONE and we have had nothing but issues with it. The stem is flexible and I think this slows down the feeding process.
We are not happy with this.

It is a silicone device that is used to fit in a gastrostomy so that direct access to the stomach is received. It is best for the patients who cannot be fed manually. This device is even used for decompression as well as medication. It has been made in a way that is identified as low profile feeding device. With this device, patient can be fed comfortably.

My doctor prescribed me to use the balloon button for my son Miguel. We have bought two other brands and this is the only one that worked well for him. Very easy to use and I can see that Miguel is very comfortable with it. We are more than happy for our little one!
