Wraps configured to cover a user's body portion having a tube that is at least partially external the user's body and that is in fluid communication with one or more internal systems of the user's body are disclosed. The wraps may include a fabric panel sized and shaped to wrap around and cover the user's body portion. The wraps may additionally include a coupling assembly connected to the fabric panel and configured to secure the fabric panel to one or more portions of the user when the fabric panel is wrapped around the user's body portion. The wraps may further include a holder assembly configured to secure a portion of the tube to the fabric panel.

A support for supporting a portion, external to a patient, of a tube partly embedded in the patient. The support includes a torso embracing portion for embracing a torso of the patient. The support also includes one or more tube holding portions for holding the tube. The tube holding portion(s) are fixable to, or part of, the torso holding portion.

A reusable quick release tracheostomy collar or band is provided. The tracheostomy collar or band comprises three quick releases so that the tracheostomy collar or band can be quickly removed or freed up such that a tracheostomy tube may be quickly removed. The tracheostomy collar or band includes two chain portions. Each chain portion carries a hook to attach to flanges on the tracheostomy tube. Each hook engages an aperture in a corresponding one of the flanges. In addition, the two chains are connected together at their opposite ends with a hook and catch. The tracheostomy collar or band is of hypoallergenic material.

Medical apparatuses for securing, protecting, retaining, and/or concealing various medical devices such as catheters or electrical leads are disclosed herein. The medical apparatus can be a garment which for use by a patient having a central venous catheter in place. Medical garments as disclosed herein can be used for a wide variety of medical devices attached to a patient, by implantation or otherwise, for varying lengths of time. Medical garments described herein may be used with any of a variety of medical devices which include or comprise one or more conduits used for medical treatment or diagnosis, including conduits which comprise catheters as well as electrical conduits such as electrical leads.

A protective vest device that will adequately secure an infant from the ability to self-dislodge medical life-sustaining supply lines or equipment, while also supporting proper body alignment. The protective device mitigates self-dislodgement while allowing for free movement and proper alignment of infants arms and hands and which are allowed to touch one another, thereby not inhibiting the ability to explore and expand brain development through tactile stimulation and therefore fostering healthy neuronal pathways of the infant. The fostering healthy neuronal pathways is provided by, for example, allowing the hands to touch one another as the infant develops a sense of where it is in space and time as it continues to grow outside of the womb. By maintaining proper body alignment of infant in the device and the configuration of the device, the device supports healthy musculoskeletal development with a stretchy womb like material to mimic the spring back effect of the uterine wall when a fetus pushes against a uterus.

A post-surgical drain management pouch is disclosed. The pouch has resilient tubing clamps to hold the tubing in a friction fit arrangement. The guides organize drain tubing and prevent their binding while also providing sufficient slack to prevent the tubing from dislodging or otherwise accidentally discharging the drainage from a surgical site. The clips also prevent the accidental disconnection of the drain tubing from the drain if the tubing is pulled tight.

A garment for providing access to feeding tubes while the garment is being worn by a patient/individual. The garment includes a centralized access opening that is closable for portions of time and that provide access to a feeding tube or feeding tube mechanism that has been surgically implemented in a patient. The access opening may be located relatively central to the garment and can illustratively include additional fasteners that can secure a portion of the feeding tube to the garment.
