ABSTRACT:
A suture tab for holding a catheter in place on a patient is described. The suture tab includes a central opening adapted to receive and hold a catheter in place. A slit extends from one edge of the suture tab to the central opening such that the catheter must pass through the slit to arrive at the central opening. A suture placed through the suture tab serves to both close the slit and hold the suture tab in place on the patient.
