    Area of Science:

    • Medical Devices
    • Patient Care
    • Wound Management

    Background:

    • Percutaneous tubes require stabilization to prevent complications like skin irritation and leakage.
    • Existing methods for tube stabilization may be inadequate, leading to patient discomfort and potential health risks.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel stabilizing system for percutaneous tubes.
    • To assess the system's efficacy in preventing tube movement, leakage, and skin irritation.
    • To determine the system's usability for patients and caregivers.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a stabilizing system integrating a drain tube attachment device with a urostomy pouching system.
    • Clinical application of the system in a case study.
    • Evaluation of the system's performance in terms of stability, leakage prevention, skin protection, and ease of use.

    Main Results:

    • The combined attachment and pouching system successfully stabilized the percutaneous tube, preventing movement and leakage.
    • The system provided an effective skin barrier, mitigating irritation.
    • The system demonstrated simplicity in application and maintenance for both patients and caregivers.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel stabilizing system offers an effective solution for managing percutaneous tubes.
    • The system enhances patient quality of life by allowing normal ambulation and dressing.
    • This approach represents a significant improvement in percutaneous tube management and patient comfort.
