Assessment of AnchorFast Guard Oral Endotracheal Tube Fastener on Patients Intubated With Oral Endotracheal Tubes With Subglottic Suction

Assessment of AnchorFast Guard Oral Endotracheal Tube Fastener on Patients Intubated with Oral Endotracheal Tubes with Subglottic Suction

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Endotracheal intubation is the trans laryngeal placement of a tube into the trachea via the nose or mouth. Subglottic suctioning, during endotracheal tube securement, is important for mechanically-ventilated patients to allow for the clearance of secretions that may accumulate during intubation. This protocol examines an enhancement to the current AnchorFast Guard device in order for the device to hold a subglottic suctioning lumen in addition to the intubation tube.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Endotracheal Tube Fastener
The intervention administered is a revised commercially available endotracheal tube holder with a tract to accommodate a subglottic suction lumen of an oral endotracheal tube.
The AnchorFast Guard oral endotracheal tube fastener provides a convenient means to hold an oral endotracheal tube securely in place without the use of adhesive tape. The oral endotracheal tube fastener allows repositioning of the tube in either direction along the track without removal of the device.
