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.
