The Smiths Medical K3000 is a non-sterile endotracheal tube holder designed to securely hold tubes ranging from 9.0-10.0 mm in diameter. It is part of the SecureEasy® and Quickstrap systems, which are designed to eliminate the need for tape and time-consuming taping procedures.
One of the key features of this holder is its ability to evenly distribute pressure across the face, ensuring patient comfort while maintaining secure placement of the endotracheal tube. The holder also includes an integrated soft bite block that prevents the patient from biting the endotracheal tube, which could potentially restrict flow.
The holder is made from a non-adhesive, non-porous soft foam that rests gently against the skin. This design allows for frequent facial hygiene and oral care without disturbing the placement of the tube. Each box contains 30 endotracheal tube holders.
