ABSTRACT:
An assembly of built-in dual system for rapidly stabilizing and firmly securing an intravascular needle or catheter like instrument to a patient is disclosed. One portion of the system consists of a roll of adhesive tape fixed strategically in a wing like structure on each side of the needle or catheter. The second system is composed of built-in suction cups undersurface of a wing like structure on each side of the needle or catheter. Upon insertion of the needle, in a blood vessel of a patient, merely dabbing the wings of the catheter to the skin extrudes air out of the suction cups. Thus vacuum created causes the suction cups to cling to the skin immediately due to atmospheric pressure. As a result the wings and the needle are stabilized immediately. This frees the hands of the operator to uncoil the adhesive tape roll provided with a clip and handle device for easy grip. Each wing is taped down firmly to the skin, achieving permanent securement to the patient.
