It is known for tracheal tubes to have a suction lumen extending along their length and opening on the outside of the tube. In the present invention the suction lumen extends on the outside of the curvature of the tube and opens internally to the main lumen through a series of holes, which increase in size towards the patient end of the tube. Towards the machine end of the tube, the suction lumen is connected to a suction source by which suction is applied to the suction lumen to remove secretions that collect inside the tube.
