Product Description
Salem Sump Tube is a double-lumen gastric tube used to prevent accumulation of gastric secretions, fluids, and air in patients requiring continuous stomach decompression. Manufactured from non-toxic, medical-grade PVC, the tube ensures safety, flexibility, and patient comfort during prolonged use.
The dual-lumen design allows one lumen for suction and drainage while the second lumen provides an air vent, preventing the tube from adhering to gastric mucosa once fluids or air are evacuated. The coned distal tip with ten lateral eyes ensures rapid and efficient drainage. Clear length markings and a radio-opaque line facilitate accurate placement and confirmation.
