| 20090093769 | UNIVERSAL CATHETER SECUREMENT DEVICE - A universal securing device for holding catheters of various shapes and sizes and the like in place includes a base and cover. The cover may be connected to the base by a hinge which allows the cover to be lifted open or pushed down into a closed position, over a catheter fitting. The base may have locating elements configured and arranged to fit around catheter fittings of various sizes, and the locating elements prevent substantial movement of a catheter fitting and catheter in various dimensions. The cover may include capture elements which act to grip and compress the catheter fitting when the securing device is in a closed position, thus preventing substantial movement of a catheter fitting and catheter in various dimensions. The base may be attached to a patient with an adhesive pad attached to the bottom surface of the base. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20090204065 | SUCTION WAND - A suction wand assembly includes a suction wand connected to a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes a pressable button or similar device for allowing a user to regulate suction force through the suction wand. The valve assembly optionally includes a locking mechanism for holding the valve in a closed position. The suction wand assembly may be stored in a holster, which optionally includes an instrument support for holding a tip of the suction wand above a base region of the holster. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20100114034 | SECUREMENT DEVICE FOR CATHETERS - A system for securing a medical device such as a catheter or other medical article having various shapes or sizes in place on a patient includes a securing device. The securing device may optionally include a retainer having one or more receiving areas and one or more retention arms adjacent to the receiving areas. The securing device may also include a retention strap having a latching element that is removably connectable to a retention arm to securely hold a catheter in place.

| 20100179482 | UNIVERSAL CATHETER SECUREMENT DEVICE - A universal device for securing a catheter on a patient includes a base which optionally has one or more locating elements for positioning or securing a catheter or catheter fitting of various shapes or sizes. The base optionally includes a recessed or flat receiving area defined by locating elements arranged in any configuration suitable to hold or receive a catheter or catheter fitting, e.g., in a tapering or V shaped formation. Additional locating elements may be positioned elsewhere on the base for receiving or holding a flange or wing of a catheter fitting and preventing its movement in various directions. The base optionally has an angled surface to maintain the desired angle for catheters or catheter fittings in a patient. A cover is removably or permanently connected to the base and may optionally have one or more top openings for receiving tabs or extensions of a catheter fitting. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100179483 | MEDICAL ARTICLE SECUREMENT DEVICE - A securement device ( | 07-15-2010 |
| 20110264050 | MEDICAL ARTICLE SECUREMENT SYSTEM - A medical article securement device holds a medical article such as a catheter in position upon the body of a patient and at least inhibits longitudinal movement of the medical article. The securement device includes a retainer, a pair of hinged actuators, and a pair of engagement members coupled with the hinged actuators. Movement of the actuators causes the engagement members to grip at least a portion of a medical article placed within the retainer so as to inhibit longitudinal movement of the medical article with respect to the retainer. The shape of the retainer inhibits lateral and transverse movement of the medical article with respect to a patient's skin. | 10-27-2011 |
