ABSTRACT:
An endotracheal tube holder for securing an endotracheal tube in a selected position in a patient's trachea. A support strip having an adhesive-backed material to secure the support strip to the patient's face is configured to be positioned in the naso-lip area of the patient's face between the lower portion of the nose and the upper lip and to spread from cheek to cheek. A locking strip comprising a "Velcro" material portion, and a pad comprising a material which interlocks with "Velcro" material are attached to the support strip. The endotracheal tube having a presealed ring at a selected location comprising a material which interlocks with "Velcro" material is used, such that the locking strip can be locked around the presealed ring and to the pad to lock the tube in the selected position and prevent its rotation.
