The invention consists of a prong protector for use with a nasal cannula, the nasal cannula having a body portion, a pair of nasal prongs extending from the body portion, and first and second supply tubes extending from opposite ends of the body portion. The prong protector includes a housing having an interior surface, for receiving the body portion of the nasal cannula thereon, and first and second sidewalls extending from said interior surface and a cover operatively attached to said housing for defining an open configuration and a closed configuration. The first and second sidewalls have an indented portion along a top edge for receiving the first and second supply tubes therein, such that, in use, the first and second supply tubes extend outside of said housing. The prong protector further includes restraining means for substantially preventing movement of the body portion within said housing.
