A securing device for an introducer (1) of the kind for introducing a conventional oral tube or laryngeal mask (40) into a patient takes the form of a V-shape plate 200 with a ribbed collar 206 at its apex within which the tube or mask is held. A gap 207 extends from the collar to the edge of the plate. To retain the collar around the tube the collar 206 grips the tube or mask (40), by fastening openings 204 in the plate 200 onto projections (128) and (130) on the introducer (1). Alternatively, the securing device (300) has a clip (301) with two spaced engagement members so that the gap (307) is squeezed to a narrow width thereby clamping the introducer. Also disclosed is an introducer with a bifurcated arms arms and a bridge representing a bite block. |
