An endotracheal tube stabilizer includes a central z-shaped body portion including a generally rectangular portion and offset portions extending leftwardly and rightwardly therefrom to define a "z" shape. Strap members extend from the ends of the offsets and are used to secure the endotracheal tube stabilizer on the patient. The z-shaped portion has an adhesive layer on one side thereof, the adhesive layer preferably protected by a backing layer that is removed prior to use. In use, the backing layer is removed and the z-shaped of the endotracheal tube stabilizer is attached to an endotracheal tube. The strap members are then secured to the patient to hold the endotracheal tube in place.
