Argyle Salem Sump Tube with Anti-Reflux Valve
A nasogastric tube (NGT) is a tube that passes through the nose and into the stomach, used to remove gastric contents or to give fluids and nutrition. A nasogastric sump tube (NGST) is a type of NGT that has a small reservoir (sump) near the tip, which can be used to collect gastric secretions. The NGST can be used to measure gastric pH and to monitor gastric emptying.
The Argyle Salem Sump Tube with Anti-Reflux Valve is a nasogastric sump tube that is used for stomach suction, decompression, irrigation and delivery of medication to your patient. It features an anti-Reflux valve to reduce the risk of exposure to gastric contents, a double lumen PVC tube one for suction drainage, and one for sump vent, and a removable 5-in-1 adapter. The radiopaque Sentinel Line makes this sterile NG tube easy to see inside your patient, and this product is designed for quick and easy attachment to suction tubing and simple tube maintenance.
