ABSTRACT:
The disclosure is of a suction catheter having a valve body including a vertical plunger in a vertical bore and two horizontal tubes, one for connection to a source of suction and one for connection to a patient. In one position of the plunger, the two tubes are aligned with a path through the plunger to provide suction to the patient. In another position of the plunger, the tube connected to the suction is led to the atmosphere whereby suction is completely removed from the patient.
