Additional Information

Description

The Salem Sump 18Fr Double Lumen Tube is a specialized medical device designed for gastrointestinal drainage and decompression in clinical settings. It features two lumens: one for suction drainage and the other for sump venting, ensuring efficient management of gastric contents and pressure relief. The tube is radiopaque, which allows for easy visualization under X-ray imaging, aiding in proper placement and monitoring during procedures.

Equipped with a Sentinel Line and Sentinel Eye tubing, the Salem Sump tube provides additional safety measures. The Sentinel Line acts as a guide for insertion and ensures correct positioning within the gastrointestinal tract, while the Sentinel Eye allows for continuous drainage without tissue obstruction.

A notable feature of this tube is its removable 5-in-1 connector, enhancing versatility in clinical applications. The connector facilitates multiple functions, including suction, irrigation, and medication administration, streamlining patient care and reducing the need for multiple tube insertions.

The funnel end of the vent lumen can be used to cap the 5-in-1 adapter when not in use, maintaining sterility and preventing contamination. This design feature supports infection control protocols, crucial for minimizing risks associated with invasive procedures.

Each Salem Sump 18Fr Double Lumen Tube is individually packaged in sterile conditions, ensuring product integrity and patient safety. It is a vital tool in managing gastrointestinal conditions requiring drainage and decompression, providing healthcare professionals with reliable support in critical care environments.
