Abstract:
A nasal cannula clamping system which holds a nasal cannula in position on a patient. The nasal cannula clamping system includes a nasal cannula clamp assembly having a clamp body and a clamp block grasping nasal cannula tubes in two non-round parallel passages/grooves which securely clamps the two tubes under the chin while not compromising the distribution of medication prescribed by the attending physician. The nasal cannula tubes are sandwiched between the clamp body and clamp block which also contains the non-round parallel passages/grooves.

Claim (Index 17):
A method for retaining a nasal cannula, the method comprising:\n positioning two second cannula tubes of the nasal cannula on a patient, the two second cannula tubes connected to a standard cannula Y ; connecting a first cannula tube between a main source and the standard cannula Y; resting two portions of the second cannula tubes in first non-round cannula tubing recesses of a clamp body of a nasal cannula clamping system; positioning a clamp block having two second non-round cannula tubing recesses over the two portions of cannula tubing; tightening the clamp block grasping the two portions of cannula tubing between the first non-round cannula tubing recesses and the two second non-round cannula tubing recesses; and starting a flow of a physician recommended/controlled medication from a main source into the nasal cannula; wherein the first and second non-round cannula tubing recesses have a width slightly greater than a diameter of the second cannula tubes, and a depth less than a radius of the second cannula tubes.
