A catheter securement device includes a base defining a slot and at least one inertial damper attached to the base and extending above the slot. The slot and the at least one inertial damper can be relatively positioned so that when the slot is aligned over a catheter insertion site, a catheter tube exiting the catheter insertion site is receivable through the slot and coilable around at least a portion of the at least one inertial damper.

A window dressing includes a primary layer having a window for viewing a catheter insertions site. The primary layer includes an adhesive layer on a lower, skin-contacting face of the primary layer. A transparent layer covers the window and adheres to the patients skin and to the top surface of the primary layer. A support structure has a stiffness that is greater than the primary layer and has an adhesive layer on the lower surface of a structural layer of the support structure. The support structure adhesive layer adheres to the support structure to the top surface of the primary layer.

A device configured for use at a catheter insertion site on a subject can include a base configured to be secured to the subject's skin over the insertion site and a catheter hub holder configured to secure to a catheter hub connected to a catheter that is configured for insertion at the insertion site. The catheter hub holder can be movably coupled to the base to allow for relative movement between the base and the catheter hub and catheter. The catheter hub holder and base can be connected via a gimbal arrangement. The base can include a membrane configured to secure to the subject's skin and a frame. In some implementations, the catheter hub holder is rotatably coupled to a clamp that is connected to the frame. In some implementations, the clamp is pivotably connected to the frame and configured to pivot between open and closed positions.

A secondary catheter fixture (100) configured to hold a catheter or catheter extension line adjacent a primary catheter fixture such that the primary catheter fixture may be removed and replaced and site cleaning may be performed during dressing replacement without increasing the risk of catheter movement. The catheter fixation device (100) comprises: a base (110) configured to be removably secured to the skin of a patient; and a clip (120) coupled to the base (110), where the clip (120) is configured to clip and hold a catheter inserted into a patient and to prevent accidental movement of the catheter at a catheter insertion site.

The utility model relates to a fixed platform and an imaging system for vascular access device indwelling assessment. The fixed platform comprises a base layer; a vascular access device pocket formed in the base layer; a catheter insertion site window formed in the base layer distal to the vascular access device pocket; and an imaging device pocket. The imaging system includes an ultrasound imaging device configured to obtain one or more images of a catheter inserted into a vascular system of a patient; and a base unit configured to receive an image from the ultrasound imaging device when the ultrasound imaging device is positioned over a distal tip of a catheter inserted into a vascular system of a patient. The embodiment of the utility model provides an improved fixing platform and an imaging system for vascular access device indwelling evaluation. According to the embodiment of the utility model, the state of the indwelling integrated vascular access device and the overall feasibility of the vascular access in acute nursing and replacement part setting can be better evaluated and monitored, and the complications and experience of a patient, the burden of a clinician and the overall effectiveness of patient treatment and nursing are reduced.

A device configured for use at a catheter insertion site in a subject may include a base configured to be secured to the subject's skin across the insertion site and a catheter hub holder configured to secure to a catheter hub connected to a catheter configured for insertion at the insertion site. The catheter hub holder may be movably coupled to the base to allow relative movement between the base and the catheter hub and catheter. The catheter hub holder and base may be connected via a gimbal configuration. The base may include a membrane configured to secure to the subject's skin and a frame. In some implementations, the catheter hub holder is rotatably coupled to a clamp connected to the frame. In some implementations, the clamp is pivotally connected to the frame and configured to pivot between an open position and a closed position.

To provide a device for securing the position of a small catheter, such as an epidural pain block catheter, and preventing migration of the catheter while it is inserted in a patient.SOLUTION: A catheter securement device includes a base 120 defining a slot, and at least one inertial damper 130 attached to the base 120 and extending above the slot. The slot and the at least one inertial damper 130 can be relatively positioned such that, when the slot is aligned over a catheter insertion site, a catheter tube exiting the catheter insertion site is receivable through the slot and coilable around at least a portion of the at least one inertial damper 130.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

A catheter securement device (100) includes a base (120) defining a slot (126) and at least one inertial damper (130) attached to the base and extending above the slot. The slot and the at least one inertial damper can be relatively positioned so that when the slot is aligned over a catheter insertion site, a catheter tube exiting the catheter insertion site is receivable through the slot and coilable around at least a portion of the at least one inertial damper.
