  • Publication number: 20050273987
    Abstract: A disposable device which secures tubing to a bedrail is disclosed. A mechanism for attaching and securing the disposable device is also disclosed. In today's hospitals, it is becoming apparent that the number of nosocomial infections or hospital acquired infections is growing. Thus, it is desired in the health care industry to have devices that can be disposable, cost effective, and easily used that can assist in decreasing these infections. Accordingly, an adjustable, disposable device which secures intravenous tubing to the bedrail as to assist in prevention of contamination of the tubing which may ultimately contaminate the insertion site of the catheter is proposed. The device will also assist in prevention of inadvertently pulling the intravenous catheter out of its insertion site. This will ultimately have the effect of decreasing infection by decreasing the number of times the skin is opened up for microorganisms to potentially invade, while at the same time decreasing unnecessary pain to the patient.
