Description
A Tube Holder is a medical device designed to securely hold and stabilize tubes, such as endotracheal (ET) tubes, tracheostomy tubes, catheters, or drainage tubes, during medical procedures or extended patient care. It plays a critical role in preventing accidental tube displacement, improving patient safety, and enhancing comfort.
Tube holders are typically used in ICUs, emergency rooms, surgical theaters, and ambulance services where maintaining a stable airway or drainage path is essential. They are also common in post-operative care and long-term ventilated patients.
Key Features:
