Abstract
A tube retention device may prohibit the removal of a tube from a body cavity. The tube retention device may include an elongate segment connected to the tube through a rotatable hinge. The elongate segment may have a length larger than the diameter of the tube. The elongate segment may rotate about the rotatable hinge from an insertion position, in which the length of the elongate segment is parallel to the tube, to a retention position, in which the length of the elongate segment is perpendicular to the tube. In the retention position, engagement of the elongate segment with the interior surface of the body cavity may prohibit removal of the tube from the body cavity.
