The Cardinal Health Salem Sump Suction Tube is a dual-lumen medical device designed for safe and efficient enteral feeding and gastric decompression. This 48-inch, 18 French tube features two separate channels: a large-diameter lumen for suction drainage of stomach contents and a smaller sump vent lumen to equalize pressure and prevent the suction catheter from adhering to the stomach lining. Made from X-ray opaque PVC material, the Salem Sump tube is easily visualized under radiography for accurate placement. The integrated funnel connector allows for secure attachment to suction tubing, while the removable 5-in-1 adapter offers versatility for connecting various feeding accessories. The funnel tip of the vent lumen can also be used to cap the adapter when not in use, promoting a closed and sanitary system.
