ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for protectively stabilizing and securing a intravenous device to a patient's body member. The method and apparatus comprise the use of a tubular sleeve made of stretchable fabric having two open ends. The intravenous device is attached to a patient's particular body member. The sleeve is stretched to encircle and elastically retain to the body member, and the sleeve has a plurality of spacings for ventilating the body member. The intravenous device is thereby secured between the sleeve fabric and the body member. The stretchable fabric is an elastic, soft, resilient material through which the body member is easily insertable while allowing the body member to easily and fully move therein.
