  • Device for simple attachment and removal of flow during intubation
    Patent number: 11045636
    Abstract: An apparatus for selectively coupling a first tube and a second tube allows easy separation and connection of tubing in cases of accidental or forceful removal of the tube. A first connecting member and a second connecting member can be easily connected and disconnected as needed to prevent and allow fluid flow to and from a patient. The apparatus can be applied to prevent the accidental removal of patients undergoing extended treatments involving tubes entering the body in the clinical, geriatric, or other care settings. The apparatus also allows for the purposeful detachment and sealing of tubes entering the body to allow for increased patient mobility.
