ABSTRACT:
A catheter holder system particularly useful for the stabilization of medical tubes and the like, particularly useful for association with ostomy receptacles. The catheter holder comprises a molded, conformable plastic member much in the configuration of a funnel or the like having a planar, annular or base portion wherein the member is of semi-rigid, upstanding construction whereby the extreme terminus of the funnel portion terminates in a tip portion which is easily separable in order to accommodate and receive various size medical tubing therethrough in order to maintain the tubing in a secure and stable position relative to the patient with which the tubing is utilized. In most instances the tubing will comprise a catheter which may be passed through the funnel portion of the member and snugly retained by friction fit therein. The catheter holder is easily adapted into a system comprising the holder member and an ostomy bag and to facilitate the assemblage, the catheter holder, or more specifically, the undersurface of the base thereof, is provided with an adhesive layer protected by a peelable sheet.
