Abstract: A catheter securement bandage may include a base layer formed with a multi-ply laminate comprising adhesive, gauze, and plastic layers. A top layer may similarly be formed with a multi-ply laminate comprising a layer adhesive, plastic, gauze, and an added layer of adhesive. By securing a hub portion and lure connector of a catheter, the catheter securement bandage maintains an optimal catheter insertion angle of the catheter into a patent this preventing kinking and obstruction of flow through the catheter.
Abstract: A catheter securement device adapted to be adhesively mounted to the skin of a patient to secure a catheter in place, the device having a flexible, thin, sheet-like base member with a distal edge and a midportion, and a releasable, flexible, thin, sheet-like retention member comprising a fixed end, a releasable end, a and a distal edge, wherein the distal edge of the retention member is offset from the distal edge of the base member to define an uplift focus area in the midportion of the base member, such that upward pull on the catheter is transferred to the midportion of the base member to preclude the base member from being peeled from the patient's skin.
