A Salem Sump NG is a type of nasogastric (NG) tube used for gastric decompression and drainage. It features a dual-lumen design, which includes one lumen for suction and another for venting, preventing the tube from adhering to the stomach wall and allowing for continuous drainage. This device is commonly used in patients with gastrointestinal obstructions or after certain surgeries. Its design helps to minimize the risk of complications associated with NG tube use.

How do you irrigate a Salem Sump tube?

To irrigate a Salem Sump tube, first, ensure the patient is in a comfortable position and the tube is properly placed. Use a sterile saline solution or prescribed irrigating fluid, and gently attach a syringe filled with the solution to the tube's port. Administer the fluid slowly while monitoring for any resistance or complications; the fluid should flow easily. After irrigation, observe the output and any changes in the patient's condition.
