Summary
This study tested a new, custom-made 3D-printed holder for breathing tubes in 66 obese adults. The goal was to see if it keeps the tube more secure and causes less skin irritation than standard methods. Researchers compared how well the tube stayed in place, skin health, and patient comfort between the new device and usual care.
