Abstract

See full text

A tracheostomy tube includes a substantially straight tube of a highly flexible material and having a wire reinforcement and a neck plate which is adapted for sliding movement axially of the tube between the proximal and distal ends of the tube. The neck plate includes a split collar elastic member which extends around the tube. The split collar member includes a tab at one end which is stretched to overlie the other end of the collar and can be locked to the other end of the collar by a pin and hole arrangement to fixedly secure the neck plate to a predetermined position on the tube.
