The use of the bulb is preferable to thetrusting of gagging efforts to force the gastric contents of the stomachthrough the tube into the receiving bulb. If mucus be present in thetest breakfast the bulb is quickly detached and a larger one, shapedlike a Politzer bag, that contains 200 of water, is substituted, the 54 CHRONIC GASTRITIS water rapidly expressed through the tube into the stomach, and atonce aspirated and the tube withdrawn. Withdrawal of the testbreakfast should not take more than fifteen seconds from the time of. Stomach-tube and aspirating bulb for extraction of gastric contents. Compression of the bulb withpinching the distal tube at A and then relaxing the pressure on the bulb serves as the vacuum. Releas-ing pressure on the distal tube, pinching the proximal tube at B, and compressing the bulb expel theaspirated contents into a graduate. Fig.
