ABSTRACT:
An intravenous catheter shield is formed by a base having side walls underlying a portion of a hand and forearm of a patient having an inserted infusion needle. The side walls at one side of the base define a thumb nesting recess therebetween. Resilient padding is interposed between the base and the patient's hand and forearm and straps extending transversely across the patient's hand releaseably secure it to the base. An inverted transparent generally U-shaped shield has leg portions removably secured to the base side walls with the bight portion of the shield in vertically spaced relation, with respect to the patient's hand, permitting visual inspection of a venipuncture site at all times.
