If the patient sweats after being attached for a long time, the adhesive tape will be reduced, causing the gastric tube 7 to fall out; and the gastric tube 7 is directly fixed by binding with a rope. The rope of the gastric tube 7 contacts the columella and the skin on both sides of the nose. After long-term use, the mucus adheres to the rope of the gastric tube 7, causing the rope of the gastric tube 7 to rub the skin roughly, which is easy to cause discomfort to the patient. In addition, the rope of the gastric tube 7 is easy to loosen during use and rest on the ear, which puts pressure on the ear and makes the skin easily ruptured, resulting in the problem of uncomfortable wearing. To this end, the gastric tube fixer provided by the utility model includes a gastric tube fixer 1, a first gastric tube tie 3 and a hydrocolloid film 2, the gastric tube fixer 1 can be clamped on the gastric tube 7, the hydrocolloid film 2 is fixed on the gastric tube fixer 1 and its two ends extend to the two sides of the gastric tube fixer 1 for sticking on the nasolabial groove when fixing the gastric tube 7, a fixing ring 9 is fixed on one side wall of the gastric tube fixer 1, one end of the first gastric tube tie 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the gastric tube fixer 1 facing away from the fixing ring 9, the other end of the first gastric tube tie 3 passes through the fixing ring 9 and is detachably connected to the outer side wall of the first gastric tube tie 3 through the first Velcro 6 so that the first gastric tube tie 3 can be tied to the patient's head, the gastric tube fixer also includes a second gastric tube tie 4, the second gastric tube tie 4 includes a first tie 42 and a second tie 41, one end of the first tie 42 and the second tie 41 are respectively connected through the first Velcro 6 The two Velcro strips are detachably connected to the first gastric tube tie 3, and the first tie 42 and the second tie 41 can be tied to each other so that the second gastric tube tie 4 is tied to the top of the patient's head. The gastric tube fixing piece 1 is clamped on the gastric tube 7 outside the nasal cavity, and is bonded to the nasolabial groove through the hydrocolloid film 2, thereby reducing the discomfort caused to the patient's skin. In addition, the first gastric tube tie 3 is connected to the gastric tube fixing piece 1 to be put on the patient's head, that is, on the back of the head, which not only fixes the installed gastric tube 7, but also has a gap between the first gastric tube tie 3 and the nostrils after wearing, and does not contact the columella and the skin on both sides of the nose wing, thereby reducing the discomfort caused to the patient by the friction of the gastric tube 7 rope and the damage to the columella and the skin on both sides of the nose wing. At the same time, the second gastric tube tie 4 exerts an upward pulling force on the first gastric tube tie 3 to avoid the discomfort caused by the first gastric tube tie 3 falling off and getting stuck in the ear.
