Abstract: A ventilator tube holder is provided in the form of a soft patch having opposed ends which are Velcroed to underlying tracheostomy ties, with a central portion having a circular orifice through which the ventilator tube passes and is held. In one embodiment the circular orifice is provided with a notch or slit for easy mounting of the patch around the ventilator tube or for quick removal of the ventilator tube, whereas in a further embodiment a soft elastic tie or strip is Velcroed from one side of the orifice to the other to hold the ventilator tube in place or to tighten the ventilator tube to the patch during any kind of deformation or stretching that may occur.
