A surgical access assembly includes a cannula and a retention anchor including an annular body and a washer secured to the annular body. The annular body includes an inner side surface defining an opening therethrough, and the washer includes an inner terminal edge defining an opening therethrough that is aligned with the opening of the annular body. The elongated shaft of the cannula extends through the openings. The washer is transitionable between a first configuration in which the inner terminal edge of the washer is coincident with or disposed radially outwardly of the inner side surface of the annular body so that the retention anchor is slidable along the elongated shaft, and a second configuration in which the inner terminal edge of the washer extends radially inwardly of the inner side surface of the annular body and engages the elongated shaft to fix the retention anchor to the elongated shaft.

Some embodiments of a medical anchor device include an elongate body coupled with deployable subcutaneous anchors to secure a catheter instrument (or other medical instrument) in place relative to a skin penetration point. In some circumstances, the elongate body may be in the form of catheter hub body, and the subcutaneous anchors can be deployed from the hub body by adjustment of a movable actuator. A locking member can interact with the actuator so as to retain the actuator in the deployed orientation during the medical procedure.

A catheter system may include a catheter adapter, which may include a distal end and a proximal end aligned with the distal end. The catheter system may include a catheter extending from the distal end of the catheter adapter. The catheter system may include an extension set, which may include a distal end, which may include a first connector coupled to the proximal end of the catheter adapter. The extension set may include a second connector and an extension tube disposed between the first connector and the second connector. The catheter, the catheter adapter, the first connector, the extension tube, and the second connector may be in fluid communication. The catheter system may include a stabilization platform disposed below the first connector.

A thoracic catheter protector pouch (1) to be worn by an adult, person or infant has a band (2) that encircles a body portion, such as a chest or arm, and a medial pocket portion (5) for holding a catheter tube (10) and connector end (11). The pocket portion has an inner panel (15) with a catheter tube securement strap (14) and two flaps (3 and 4) which open to insert a catheter and close over each other securely by fasteners (6 and 7) preferably hook and loop fastening material. The band is preferably elastomeric and is size adjustable.
