What Is a Triple Lumen Catheter?

A triple lumen catheter is one that has three separate lumens. A lumen is simply an individual channel within the catheter. For example, in a urinary catheter, there may be one lumen used for draining urine and a secondary lumen used for inflating a balloon to hold the tube in place.

Triple lumen catheters always have three lumens in total, and each lumen will have its own purpose. They can be used for draining fluids out of the body, transfusing fluids into the body, or for diagnostics to measure and check things within the body.

Many different types of catheters have three lumens, and they can be used for a wide range of purposes, including dialysis, infusion of medicines, and more. There are lots of potential usage cases for a triple lumen catheter, and they may vary in design, with different sizes, materials, and tips used for various purposes and procedures.
