Body-inserted tube cleaning

A cleaning device for removing biofilm from a body-inserted medical tube comprising:

• an elongate body comprising a distal end and a proximal end;
• a cleaning member positioned along the elongate body,
• wherein the cleaning member is selectively movable between a radially-collapsed configuration and a radially-expanded configuration,
• wherein at least a portion of the cleaning member 1s configured to circumferentially contact an interior surface of the medical tube when in the radially-expanded configuration,
• wherein the cleaning member, when m the radially-expanded configuration, is configured to remove biofilm from the medical tube as the elongate body is withdrawn from the medical tube;
• and
• a suction channel extending along an interior of the elongate body, the suction channel comprising at least one port.
