ABSTRACT:
An endotracheal tube holder includes a thin contoured plate fitting over the patient's nose, held in place by an elastic strap attached to either side of the plate and extending around the back of the patient's head. A pair of supplemental elastic straps are attached to the member, the opposite ends being fastened adjustably and slidably along the first strap on opposite sides of the patient's face. The opposite ends of the supplemental straps are attached to the lower portion of the support member, and provide stability in holding said member on the patient's face. A notched opening is located at the lower edge of the support member, into which an endotracheal tube may be laterally inserted and frictionally held in place. The straps may be adjusted or tightened by pulling on the ends.
