DALEŽ
Tracheostomy
Tube Holder
Latex Free
Your
patient will be more comfortable, and you will too.
To
make tracheostomy tube stabilization more secure and
to avoid the knotty problems associated with the tying
and untying of twill ties, consider the DaleŽ Tracheostomy
Tube Holder. Available in adult and neonate/infant sizes,
the narrow fastener tabs of the DaleŽ Tracheostomy Tube
Holder engage and disengage the trach plate quickly
and easily, so tube stabilization is faster and safer
than ever before. Unlike unyielding twill tape, the
soft neckband of the DaleŽ Tracheostomy Tube Holder
incorporates a length of stretch material that allows
for cough reflex. The stretch material also accommodates
any edema around the neck, and ensures a safe, snug
and comfortable fit. An extension piece is also available
to accommodate your obese patients.
