  • Publication number: 20240024633
    Abstract: An integrated vascular delivery system and method of use, the system including: a frame having a catheter hub that provides a first anchoring point on the patient and receives a catheter insertable in the patient to transfer fluid at an insertion site, a stabilization hub that provides a second anchoring point on the patient, at least one lateral member extending between the catheter and stabilization hubs, and a fluidic channel. The frame operates in a folded configuration in which the hubs are coupleable and an unfolded configuration in which the anchoring points are distributed around the insertion site to anchor the frame to the patient, thereby stabilizing the catheter. In some embodiments, the system further includes a septum that helps prevent fluid leakage from the catheter hub, or a needle shield that covers the distal end of a needle used during catheter insertion.

  • Publication number: 20210220619
    Abstract: A safety needle system operable with a medical device includes: a housing with a needle mount having a needle; and a sheath telescopically engaged with the housing and surrounding the needle such that the sheath operates in a retracted position, in which the sheath exposes the needle, and an extended position, in which the sheath surrounds the needle. The sheath is coupleable to the medical device such that removal of the needle from the medical device draws the sheath over the needle, transitioning the sheath from the retracted position to the extended position. In one embodiment, the system includes a slider engaged with the sheath and/or housing and including a restraint that engages and disengages the sheath to respectively reinforce and weaken the coupling of the sheath and medical device. In another embodiment, the sheath includes a longitudinal track that slidingly engages a setting of the housing between sheath positions.

  • Publication number: 20120016312
    Abstract: A catheter stabilization device for stabilizing an inserted catheter penetrating a surface at a catheter insertion site, including: a base that is coupleable to the surface and includes a channel defining a longitudinal opening that receives a portion of the catheter, and a frame that forms at least a partial perimeter around the catheter insertion site with a plurality of anchoring points; and a catheter fitting, coupled to the base, that secures the catheter in the channel. The base couples to the surface at the plurality of anchoring points distributed around the catheter insertion site, thereby stabilizing the catheter. The method of using the device includes positioning the base over the catheter, receiving a portion of the catheter in the channel through the longitudinal opening, securing the catheter within the channel, and coupling the base to the surface at the plurality of anchoring points distributed around the insertion site.
