Abstract
A device for securing an oral airway device in place with a patient's oral cavity. The device comprises a V-clamp which is slid along its upper edge in the direction of the oral airway device. After making contact with the oral airway device with the V-clamp, the user may choose to manipulate a screw disposed on the device and bring its corresponding distal end into physical contact with the opposing surface or side of the oral airway device, thereby creating a compressive force on the oral airway device. Alternatively, the device may comprise a V-clamp on a first portion which is disposed on a sliding track. The first portion may be manipulated with the addition of a screw in order to create a compressive force on the oral airway device. Alternatively, the device may comprise two rotating portions coupled together via a pivot point.
