ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a medical tube holder for use in securing endotracheal and similar tubes inserted in a patient's body cavity. The tube holder has an elongated tube made of elastomeric flexible material with hollow interior and a slit formed transversely to a longitudinal axis of the tubing at a middle portion of the tubing. A securing strap is threaded through the tubing with middle portion of a strap extending through the slit to form a loop through which the medical tube is inserted. The parts of the flexible fabric securing strap are brought around a body of the patient and tied together, thus retaining the medical tube in relation to the patient's body.
