ABSTRACT:
An aspirating device for a patient ventilation apparatus comprising a catheter cartridge, including an elongated catheter tube housed in an enclosing, protective housing, and a vacuum coupling mechanism is disclosed. A wheel, affixed to the proximal (vacuum) end of the catheter tube is housed in the vacuum coupling mechanism in a manner which allows access to the wheel. The protective housing includes a flexible envelope and sealing coupling elements. The flexible envelope allows the distal (patient) end of the catheter tube to be inserted into and withdrawn from the trachea of a patient. The wheel allows the catheter tube to be rotated during withdrawal. A port formed in the distal end element allows the outer surface of the catheter tube to be irrigated by a suitable cleansing solution during withdrawal of the catheter tube from the trachea. Further, a medication port, located in the vacuum coupling mechanism, in combination with a valve, allows medication to be inserted into the catheter tube. A suitable coupling element couples both the aspirating device and a suitable resuscitating apparatus to the trachea of a patient.
