ABSTRACT:
A device for securing and stabilizing an intravenous catheter and a portion of its associated tubing in place relative to the limb of a patient, comprising a planar base to be removeably attached to the limb of a patient adjacent the catheter entry site, having a pair of U-shaped walls defining an acruate slot therebetween to receive and stabilize the catheter tubing, and further having a cover adapted to be removeably interconnected to the planar base to retain and stabilize the catheter and associated tubing relative to the limb of the patient and prevent direct access to the catheter entry site. The device is preferably constructed of a clear plastic material and is preferably attached to the limb of the patient with one or more flexible adhesive strips.
