Filed:

7/536292
Inventors:

Abstract:
A clinical suction tube holder assembly (10), and a method of its use, involve the use of a receiver (12), having a wall (13), for defining a tube-receiving passage (18) attached to a mounting block (14) having pressure sensitive adhesive (16) thereon for selectively mounting the clinical suction tube holder assembly to a fixed structure at a support surface (36) on which a subject (40) to be treated is resting. After treating the subject with a fluid-flow tube (26) a portion thereof is selectively folded on itself and inserted into the tube receiving passage for being held therein at a fixed location with a blocked lumen (30) and for being selectively removed therefrom and unfolded, to thereby unblock its lumen, for further treatment.
