CONNECTING PIECE FOR A DOUBLE LUMEN TUBE WITH TWO INDIVIDUAL LUMEN TUBES

摘要

The invention relates to a connecting piece (26) for a double lumen tube (12) having two individual lumen tubes (14; 16), which is especially intended for use in a tracheobronchial system. The connecting piece (26) has an input connection (28) for the double lumen tube (12) which branches into two output connections (30; 32) for the individual lumen tubes (14; 16). The inner passage for the double lumen tube (12) and the output connections for the individual lumen tubes (14; 16) are configured in such a way that in their cross sectional form, they have a substantially progressive and continuos transition into the lumina of the tubes to be connected.
