Posey secure Tie for TracheosTomy Tubes
The Secure Tie is designed for ventilator dependent patients to help prevent extubation of tracheostomy tube. Two extra ties have been added to our popular hook and loop foam trach tie to help prevent disconnection of the swivel adapter or elbow that commonly occurs during coughing. No more hook and loop around the swivel connector, no more rubber bands to help keep your patient from inadvertently becoming disconnected from the ventilator. Three sizes t tiny premies to large adults.
• One dozen per box
• Available in S (7-10”, 17.8-25.4cm); M (9-17”, 22.9-43.4cm); L (13-24”, 33.1-61.2cm)
• Single patient use. May be laundered if soiled. Discard if “Hook” does not rmly adhere to white fuzzy backing.

4. Grasping each end of the Secure Tie, bring over the top of the patient connector (swivel adapter/elbow) or ex hose. The Secure Tie may be tied at this point in a single tie or a bow tie around the patient connector as illustrated (See gure 3).
Note: Do not force tabs through the slot when removing trach tie. This could cause accidental extubation or displacement of the tube. If the slot is too small to allow for easy removal, cut o the hook and loop tab, and pull the tie gently.

Always monitor patients carefully to ensure they are not at risk for disrupting lifesaving therapy. Constant supervision, electronic monitoring and/or the use of a restraint may be required in conjunction with proper medical supervision.
