ABSTRACT:
A continuous frame of resilient foam material is strapped to a patient with a central aperture of the frame surrounding the puncture area of an intravenous (IV) needle inserted into the patient. A separate dome with ventilation apertures is attachable over the central aperture of the frame to shield the needle. The IV tube is anchored to the frame at a plurality of different locations such that tension applied to the tube is not transmitted to the needle to dislodge it.
