Unique tracheostomy holder offers softer and more comfortable fit around the neck; quilted design minimizes skin irritation under the collar.

To ensure safety, the patient with a tracheostomy needs to have a tube holder that securely holds the artificial airway in place so that the device is not accidentally dislodged. As important, the holder needs to provide a soft and comfortable fit about the neck without irritating the skin under the collar. Danny Ties are made of a soft, absorbent material that lay smooth at the edges of the collar and significantly minimize skin breakdown beneath the collar. The collar holds its shape, does not fold in half around the neck and does not stretch when it absorbs moisture. The patent pending design of the Danny Ties evenly distributes the padded collar material around the neck to minimize pressure points on the skin.

The Danny Ties collar is easy to apply with tapered ends to the collar straps. The ends thread easily through the eyelets of the tracheostomy tube allowing for quick application and changes of the collar on the smallest of infants and the large adult patient. If soiled, the Danny Ties may be washed, dried and reused for the same patient per institutional policy.

Danny Ties are developed with special care by a dad wanting to “make a difference” for his son and change the quality of life for tracheostomy patients. His engineering expertise and commitment to finding a better solution is found in the Danny Ties.

The Sil.Flex™ Stoma Pad may be used in combination with the Danny Ties. Sil.Flex Stoma Pads enhance patient comfort with all brands and styles of tracheostomy tubes. The TrachStay™ may be used in tandem with the Danny Ties to prevent accidental disconnects from the ventilator circuit.
