Skin breakdown is our concern too with the tape and twill tie methods. We see corners of the mouth breakdown with the tenstion from the twill tie method and with the tape method our concern breakdown from the adhesive. Have you seen this in your practice. Also with the holder the brand that we have looked at has a built in bite block and a NG tube holder too. What is you experience with this??? thanks
I am looking for info on methods used to secure ET tubes and the pros and cons of the method. In our facility RT uses tape or twill tie method, but nursing would like to use an ET tube holder device. Any info/research/literature/or view based on your experience would be greatly appreciated!!!
