ABSTRACT:
A tube clip device, preferably having a one-piece construction and formed integrally of a resiliently flexible material, includes a flat base member having bar slot and stud slot attachment elements, a flat closure member having bar and stud attachment elements being complementary in shape to and interengageable with the bar slot and stud slot of the base member, a living hinge pivotally connecting the base and closure members together for pivotal movement between opened and closed positions relative to one another, and a clip element mounted on an outer side of the closure member for releasably clasping a flexible medical tube. Upon inserting the base and closure members over an edge of a garment and pivoting the members to the closed position, the bar slot and stud slot of the base member become releasably latched with the bar and stud of the closure member and with the garment edge therebetween, thereby attaching the medical tube clip device to the garment. The clip element mounted on the closure member clasps the medical tube securely for restraining the medical tube from twisting and for dispersing the weight of the medical tube more or less evenly over the garment and upper torso of the person.
