Dale® Introduces Stabilock™ - A New Endotracheal
Tube Holder Providing Greater Security and Comfort
PLAINVILLE, MA,
May 5, 2005 – The
new Dale® Stabilock™ Endotracheal
Tube Holder provides a more secure method of stabilization
giving clinicians a better way to prevent accidental
extubation. The flexible, cushioned and latex-free
system is easy to apply and secures all sizes of endotracheal
tubes. It offers important benefits to both the
patient and the clinician.
The adhesive base that acts as the underpinning of
the system is skin friendly and attaches to the neckband
with a Velcro® strip to prevent slippage. The lightweight,
flexible tubing channel prevents kinking and allows
easy access for oral care. Patient comfort and a secure
fit are ensured by the soft, easily adjustable, cushioned
neckband. The holder is also adaptable for patients
with facial hair. It is easy to apply and complies
with Advance Cardiac Life Support guidelines.
“From our ongoing dialog with clinicians,
we know that accidental extubation is always a serious
concern,” says Dale President John Brezack. “We
created the Dale® Stabilock™ Endotracheal
Tube Holder to respond to the need for a more secure
method of stabilization. We’ve also built in
the kind of comfort and ease-of-use features clinicians
expect from Dale products.”
