  • Publication number: 20250082905
    Abstract: An anchoring system includes a simply structured suture-like device which permits a catheter to be easily attached to the patient without the use of needles and without actually suturing anything to the patient. The anchoring device desirably includes two threads or filaments and two corresponding receptacles. The filaments include protuberances which cooperate with apertures of the receptacles to permit easy insertion and removal of a midportion of the filaments into a side slot of the receptacles in a longitudinal direction. The receptacles inhibit retraction of the filament in a lateral direction from the receptacles. A healthcare worker simply threads the filament through the aperture in the wing of the catheter and wraps a midportion of the filament through the receptacle with the protuberance beyond an end of the receptacle which tightly holds the catheter between side walls of the base. The base in turn can include an adhesive bottom surface which can be attached to the patient's skin.
