20110021997 | Catheter securement device - An improved catheter securement device, the device having a main body assembly for securing a catheter housing, the assembly adapted to adhesively adher to the skin of a patient, wherein the improvement is a thin, flexible base extension member that is adapted to adher to the patient's skin, the base extension member being provided with an elongated slit dividing the base extension member into two leg portions. The catheter securement device is adhered to the patient such that the venous catheter portion extends through the slit at the insertion site when the catheter housing is properly retained. Preferably, the adhesive utilized to adhere the base extension member to the patient's skin incorporates an anti-microbial composition to combat microorganisms in the area of the insertion site. | 01-27-2011 |
20120083743 | Catheter securement device - A catheter securement device that adheres to the skin of a patient having an epidural catheter or similar small flexible tube member inserted percutaneously, the securement device having a flexible, sheet-like main body member capable of adhering to the skin of the patient, a notched pad member over which the catheter is bent, an exposed portion of adhesive to contact the catheter, and a releasable retention member to secure the catheter onto the main body member. | 04-05-2012 |
20120316504 | Slotted catheter securement device - A slotted catheter securement device adapted for securing a catheter extending generally perpendicularly from the skin of a patient, having a base member and a securing member co-planarly oriented, the securing member being joined to the base member non-coextensively, an interior, a slot passing through the base member and the securing member in communication with the interior opening; the securing member having a first bridging member and a second bridging member non-coextensively joined to the base member, a securing adhesive layer positioned on at least one of the first and second bridging members, the first bridging member having an attached end and a free end, the second bridging member having two attached ends, whereby the first and second bridging members fold away from the base member to adhere to each other and to a catheter disposed therebetween. | 12-13-2012 |
20150094675 | Stoma Stopper Securement Dressing - A stoma stopper securement dressing having a base member formed of a thin, flexible, skin-conforming sheet material having an adhesive coating on its underside for securing the base member to a skin surface, an opening in the base member to allow for passage of a stopper shaft therethrough, and a thin, flexible, releasable strap member attached to the base member, one end of the strap member being fixed to the based member and the other end of the strap member being a free end, such that the strap member can be opened to expose the opening for insertion or removal of a stoma stopper and can be closed to retain the stoma stopper therein. | 04-02-2015 |

20080200880 | Catheter anchor - A catheter anchoring or securement device and system in combination with or for securing a catheter system to a patient's skin in a fixed position, the invention having a flexible anchor sheet member having an adhesive backing that adheres the flexible anchor sheet member to the patient's skin, a catheter receiving body mounted to the flexible anchor sheet member, and releasable securing means comprising a cover or closure member covering the catheter receiving body, wherein the catheter receiving body is provided with a cavity or recess, the peripheral configuration of which corresponds to the footprint configuration of the catheter body member. The cavity has an axially-oriented channel extending the full width of the flexible anchor sheet member and opposing sets of retention walls defining lateral recesses, the combination of which precludes relative movement of the catheter fitting in all lateral directions. | 08-21-2008 |
20150051549 | Double Notched Catheter Securement Assembly - A catheter securement device that adheres to the skin of a patient having an epidural catheter or similar small flexible tube member inserted percutaneously, the securement device having a flexible, sheet-like main body member capable of adhering to the skin of the patient, a double notched pad member over which the catheter is bent, and a releasable retention member to secure the catheter onto the main body member. | 02-19-2015 |
20150258309 | Offset Catheter Securement Device - 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. | 09-17-2015 |
