More about extracting medical materials
Some patients tend to take off the medical equipment necessary for their treatment. Examples include gastric tubes, infusions, bladder catheters, drains and breathing tubes. This can be done on purpose or when the patient is confused. Besides the fact that it poses an acute danger in some cases (such as with the ventilation tube), it is also annoying (for both patient and nurse) to have to apply/insert this material again and again. Prevention is better than cure.
