More Information
Summary:A catheter mount for a patient ventilating (23) and aspirating system (8) is disclosed. The a patient ventilating and aspirating system has a suction tube (9) and connector (6) for connecting to the catheter mount that has a sealed passageway (15). The catheter mount passageway is sealed with an elastomeric seal (16) including a perforation or slit (17). A connector (12) with a piercing member is associated with the suction tube. When the connector is attached to the catheter mount the piercing member (20) pierces the seal such that the suction tube can pass through the connector and catheter mount. The seal includes a re-sealing mechanism configured to re-seal the seal when the aspirating system has been removed, and provides a substantially airtight seal at normal operating pressures.
