Integrated vascular delivery system
An integrated vascular delivery system and method of use, the system including: a frame having a catheter hub that provides a first anchoring point on the patient and receives a catheter insertable in the patient to transfer fluid at an insertion site, a stabilization hub that provides a second anchoring point on the patient, at least one lateral member extending between the catheter and stabilization hubs, and a fluidic channel. The frame operates in a folded configuration in which the hubs are coupleable and an unfolded configuration in which the anchoring points are distributed around the insertion site to anchor the frame to the patient, thereby stabilizing the catheter. In some embodiments, the system further includes a septum that helps prevent fluid leakage from the catheter hub, or a needle shield that covers the distal end of a needle used during catheter insertion.

Integrated vascular delivery system
An integrated vascular delivery system having a frame configured to receive a catheter insertable in a patient to deliver fluid at an insertion site. The frame includes a first hub, a second hub, and a pair of flexible lateral members extending between the hubs and including a tubular lateral member. The system also includes a fluidic channel that fluidically communicates with the catheter, wherein the fluidic channel passes through the tubular lateral member and at least one of the hubs, and includes a fixed turnabout portion in which fluid flows in a direction different from that within the catheter. The first and second hubs provide anchoring points on the patient distributed around the insertion site and on opposite ends of the catheter, thereby anchoring the frame to the patient and stabilizing the catheter. A method is provided for using an integrated vascular delivery system.

Sterile Sealed Secured IV Catheter Dressing
Devices, systems, and methods used to dress a catheter device are disclosed. The devices and systems include a catheter dressing system including a body, a closure member, an adhesive plate, and an extension tubing having a catheter connector coupled to a distal end. The catheter dressing system is displaceable over the extension tubing and the extension tubing passes through the closure member. The catheter connector is disposable within a chamber of the body to prevent movement of the catheter connector. The closure member is actuated to form a circumferential seal around the extension tubing to prevent contamination of the catheter connector and to prevent axial movement of the extension tubing. The adhesive plate can be adhered to a patient's skin to form a circumferential seal around a catheter skin puncture site. The method includes sliding the catheter dressing system along the extension tubing.
