ABSTRACT:
An improved surgical device for performing emergency cricothyrotomies and tracheotomies. The device includes a holder for a stylet or tube which holder includes a two-part needle attached to a pair of handles, each handle including one part of the needle, which handles can be spread apart for insertion of a tube or stylet between the needle parts. The tube or stylet is then held between the needle parts. When it is desired to remove the device from the patient, one of the handles having its needle part can be removed from the other handle having its needle part without disturbing the tube or stylet held between the needle parts. In this manner, sutures can be easily made around a chest or throat opening in which the device has been inserted since only the tube remains in place.
