Endotracheal Intubation Apparatus Providing Enhanced Stability In An Intubated Patient
US Patent:
2009021, Aug 27, 2009
Filed:
Nov 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/719623
Inventors:
Paul A. Matera - Annapolis MD, US
International Classification:
A61M 16/04
US Classification:
12820026
Abstract:
An endotracheal intubation apparatus includes a tube having a distal end, a proximal end, and an extensible and contractible portion. The apparatus further includes at least one cuff on the tube proximate to the distal end. The cuff is movably attached to the tube such that the cuff is capable of at least some movement in a proximal direction and in a distal direction on the tube. A tube holder includes a resilient support configured to substantially bias the proximal end of the tube toward a selected oral position in a patient. The apparatus also includes at least one tube locator that is adapted to indicate the position of a distal portion of the tube within the patient.
