The present invention relates to an endotracheal tube fixation apparatus, comprising an attracted element and a magnetic ring. The attracted element fixed on the endotracheal tube is made of magnetized substance and covered by a soft protection layer. The magnetic ring is provided with a plurality of thin-sliced magnetic elements which are spaced at intervals and enclosed by the soft protection layer. The magnetic ring is placed around the neck of a patient when in use, while the attracted element is intubated into the trachea of the patient together with the endotracheal tube and stays at the place matching correspondingly to the magnetic ring. The magnetic ring and the attracted element then attract each other, which enables a fixation of the endotracheal tube staying within a selected region.
