ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for holding a naso-gastric tube in position relative to a patient's nares, while at the same time permitting a reasonable degree of freedom for the patient to move without significant discomfort. The device includes a clamp for fixedly and movably engaging a naso-gastric tube and an adhesive member for affixing the device to a patient's nose. These two elements are connected by a flexible elongate member which allows relative movement therebetween. The tube clamp frictionally engages the exterior of the tube and thus allows the tube to be manually moved relative thereto for repositioning.
