Description
The AMT MiniONE® Balloon Button is a low-profile gastrostomy device designed to deliver enteral nutrition directly into the stomach through the abdominal wall. This validated 14F x 1.5 cm variant features an ENFit connection and is intended for users who require a skin-level feeding access option with a compact external profile.
Made from medical-grade silicone, the device is designed to support comfort during daily wear while helping reduce skin irritation around the stoma site. Its soft, flexible external bolster is shaped to sit close to the skin, which can assist with comfort, simplify routine cleaning, and help reduce trauma caused by movement or pressure.

Variant Specifications
For this 14F MiniONE® Balloon Button, the balloon water fill volume is 3 mL minimum, 4 mL recommended, and 5 mL maximum. On 12–14F MiniONE® Balloon devices, the balloon fill valve is compatible with both Luer slip-tip and Luer Lock syringes.
Design Benefits
The internal apple-shaped balloon is designed to provide broader contact within the stoma tract, supporting device retention. The tapered shaft-to-bolster transition helps create a smoother interface at the skin level, which may assist in maintaining the external seal. The angled fill port is positioned to improve access during balloon maintenance while preserving the button’s low external profile.
