The broken lines shown herein are for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the claimed design. The different stippling patterns in the drawings indicate surfaces having a contrasting appearance as shown.

The environmental views of FIGS. 5, 6, 11 and 12 are shown for illustrative purposes with respect to an endotracheal tube (shown in broken line and disclaimed), and it should be understood that in use, portions of the device would be occluded by the endotracheal tube and/or by insertion in a patient. For FIGS. 7-12, when printed in black and white, the different segments represent red, yellow and green.

The catheter is shown with a symbolic break in its length. The appearance of any portion of the article between the break lines forms no part of the claimed design.
