  • Publication number: 20220001124
    Abstract: A tube securement system is disclosed that comprises a coupling article formed from a backing layer with first major surface and a second major surface. The coupling article comprises an anchor section, a capture section, and a longitudinal portion extending along a longitudinal direction separating the anchor section from the capture section. There is a first adhesive on the first major surface of the backing at the anchor section and a second adhesive on the first major surface of the backing at the capture section. The first major surface of the backing at the longitudinal portion is free of adhesive.

  • Patent number: 11013667
    Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer can be configured to be adhered to a nose, the base layer having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, and a leg. The leg can be connected to and extending from the first end, can be elongated along a longitudinal direction, and can be configured to secure a nasogastric tube.

  • Patent number: 10814103
    Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer configured to be adhered to a nose, having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, and a second end configured to secure a nasogastric tube. The coupling layer can further include a cutaway region extending from a periphery of the coupling layer adjacent the second end into a central portion of the coupling layer, such that the second end comprises legs that are separated by the cutaway region, and such that the first end is free of the cutaway region.

  • Publication number: 20200078561
    Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer can be configured to be adhered to a nose, having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a footprint area of A. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer; a second end configured to secure a nasogastric tube, and a middle section connecting the first end and the second end. The first end of the coupling layer can have a footprint area of at least 0.3 A. The middle section can be elongated along a longitudinal direction, and the first end and the second end can each be wider than the middle section in a lateral direction oriented substantially perpendicularly with respect to the longitudinal direction.

  • Publication number: 20190366050
    Abstract: Catheter securement systems, kits, and methods. The catheter securement systems include a base article that can be coupled to skin, and a coupling article having an anchor section and one or more legs configured to secure a catheter to the base article. The base article and the coupling article are configured to secure the catheter to the base article while allowing for removal and re-attachment of the catheter and the coupling article between two or more base articles attached to a patient while the base articles remain attached to the patient, or for repositioning of the catheter and coupling article on the same base article. Base articles can remain in position on the skin until it becomes necessary to change the base article or the catheter is removed from the patient. Catheter securement systems can be provided as a kit.
