What is a Tracheostomy Tube Holder used for?
A tracheostomy tube must remain securely positioned to maintain a safe airway. A tracheostomy tube holder wraps around the neck and attaches to the fixation points of the tracheostomy tube, helping prevent excessive movement or accidental displacement.
The adjustable two-piece design allows the holder to be fitted securely while maintaining patient comfort. The soft foam and brushed cotton construction provides a comfortable alternative to traditional tracheostomy ties.
The Adult TraxGuard version also incorporates a cough reflex section, which allows additional movement during coughing while continuing to support secure tube fixation.
Who is it suitable for?
The Tracheostomy Tube Holder is intended for patients with a tracheostomy tube in place who require secure neck-based tube fixation.
Adult and Paediatric versions are available so an appropriate option can be selected according to the patient's requirements.
The manufacturer states that these holders must not be used with silicone tracheostomy tubes. Always check compatibility with the tracheostomy tube being used and follow the supplied instructions and guidance of a healthcare professional.
