Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to devices, and related methods of treatment using the same, for securing an endotracheal tube (commonly abbreviated as “ETT”) or other medical line to a patient, and more particularly to infants, babies in a neonatal unit, small children, etc.). The disclosure also relates to techniques and devices to remove the presence of unplanned extubations. In an exemplary embodiment, as taught in the present disclosure, a device may be used to secure an endotracheal tube to a small child or newborn infant such that the device may be configured to adjust the grip of the endotracheal tube to achieve optimal securement and stabilization of the endotracheal tube.

Abstract: A hard disk destruction apparatus is presented having a penetrating point that is manually pressed against a hard disk. The point has an angled tip designed to penetrate the hard disk casing and deform the hard disk platters within. The manual pressing avoids the use of any electrical power or other fuel. In one described embodiment, a mechanical arbor press provides the necessary force. A transparent safety shield surrounds the hard disk during destruction. A restraint prevents upward movement of the hard disk when the point is extracted.
