ABSTRACT:
An intravenous catheter shield is formed by a base underlying a portion of the patient's limb containing an infusion needle. A transparent channel-like housing is hingedly connected with the base and overlies the catheter area in vertical spaced relation. Velcro equipped straps secure the patient's limb to the base and the outer surface of the housing is provided with resilient clamps which grip an IV tube extending across the housing and into its interior for connection with the catheter.
