The truth is that a tube is ran down into your stomach through your mouth or nose. It may or may not be flushed with water first but then the contents of your stomach are pumped out. Medicine may be used prior to so as to help with any issues from use of the tube.

Stomach pump and respiratory arrest if someone was intubated because they had stopped breathing could you also put a tube down them to pump their stomach at same time meaning TWO tubes at same time?

Yes this is an option that is available. When using an airway device referred to as a Combitube you can provide airway management, artificial breathing, and access to the stomach.(for pumping it) The combitube is simply two tubes glued together that gets stuffed down the throat. The only caveat for pumping the stomach is that the holes in the combitube are somewhat small and no chunks bigger than about half a green pea would fit. This is all assuming that you purposely placed the combitube into the esophagus instead of the trachea.
