Abstract
A device for holding an endotracheal tube at a corner of a human patient's mouth to allow the mouth to remain free of obstruction in event aspiration of stomach contents occurs. The device includes a relatively stiff clamp holder pad. The clamp holder pad has a clamp holder mounted at one end thereof. A clamp for holding an endotracheal tube at one side of a person's mouth to leave a central area of a person's mouth between its corners free of obstructions to enable regurgitated foods and fluids to flow more freely from a person's mouth is provided. The clamp holder having a releasable fastener securing the clamp to the clamp holder. Straps are attached to the relatively stiff clamp holder pad and are positioned topside thereof on opposite sides of the clamp. The straps have 'VELCRO' fasteners for securing the straps when the straps are wrapped around a patient's head extending directly underneath a patient's nose and across a patient's chin to firmly position the device on a patient's head at one side of a patient's mouth.
