A cross-sectional medical illustration shows a Sengstaken–Blakemore tube (SBT) with an inflated gastric balloon occupying the lumen of the stomach and the catheter passing through the distal esophagus at the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). In anatomy and gastroenterology, this medical device is used to provide tamponade and temporary hemostasis for bleeding esophageal varices. The depiction demonstrates an organ-level context (stomach within the gastrointestinal system) in Homo sapiens (human) and the functional placement of the tube for emergency control of upper GI hemorrhage.
