Forceps having arms pivotally connected for relative movement between an opened position and a closed position include a tube guide formed by arcuate guide portions on each arm. The tube guide includes an inwardly facing arcuate inside wall surface sized for slidable engagement with a tube. The tube guide is fixed at a right angle to the arms and includes a gap formed between tip ends of each of the arcuate guide portions when the arms are in the closed position. Each arm includes a bend fixed at distal ends, wherein the bend is positioned at a distance from the tube guide to form a distal arm portion for each arm permitting an improved view during use of the forceps.
