Abstract:
An airway stabilization system is provided for maintaining an airway device in a patient's trachea and for preventing clinically significant movement thereof with respect to the patient's vocal cords in response to the application of multidirectional forces to the airway device. The system includes a retention collar secured to the airway device to define a retention structure, a restraining device adapted to releaseably engage the retention structure and to cooperate therewith to prevent clinically significant movement of the airway device, and means for securing the restraining device to a patient's head.
