<p>The invention relates to a gastric tube for supplying or removing substances to or from the gastric tract of a patient, and to a method for introducing a gastric tube. In order to reduce the strain on the patient and the risk of injury, especially for patients with disturbed consciousness, the inventive gastric tube comprises a first tubular element ( 101, 201 ) which can be introduced into the gastric tract of a patient, forming a supply lumen ( 102 ) for substances to be supplied or removed to or from the gastric tract. Said first tubular element ( 101, 102 ) is formed from a skin-compatible and flexible material. The inventive gastric tube also comprises a second tubular element ( 108, 208 ) which is fixed to the first tubular element ( 101, 201 ) and provided with means for triggering the swallowing reflex of the patient, the second tubular element ( 108, 208 ) being more rigid than the first tubular element ( 101, 201 ).</p> |
