Securement device for polymer tubing and polymer coated cables
A securement device for catheter tubes and polymer coated cables includes a base mounted on a support surface, and male and female straps, the male straps having locking members that mate with corresponding apertures in the female straps. The male and female straps connect to a base via fixed ends of the respective male and female straps, and each of the fixed ends comprises a curved portion configured to orient the corresponding unsecured strap substantially parallel to the base. Each of the fixed ends of the male straps mate with the fixed ends of the corresponding female strap, thereby forming a crease for seating the tube or cable being secured.
Catheter securement, stabilization, and antimicrobial device
A catheter housing for securing a catheter device coupled to a catheter. The catheter housing can include a cover and a hub. The catheter housing can additionally include a lock in an interior portion of the cover that secures a portion of the catheter device coupled to the catheter. The catheter housing can additionally include a bridge configured to contact and/or secure a portion of the catheter device and align the catheter device so that the catheter remains inserted at a natural or proper insertion angle relative to a patient's vein. The catheter housing can include one or more wings extending outward from a cover of the housing that can help secure tubing coupled to the catheter device.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECTAL ANAESTHESIA
A system and method for delivering a medicament to a target tissue site in a patient over a period of time. A catheter is configured for implantation in different target tissue sites and extends from a proximal end to a distal end and has a sidewall which defines an internal lumen. The distal end has one or more apertures either in the sidewall or at a distal end for the release of the medicament into the target tissue site; the system also comprises a medicament reservoir fluidly communicable with the internal lumen of each catheter, an adhesive member configured to adhere to the skin of the patient around the exit wound and having an opening therein to allow the catheters to pass through the adhesive member and a retaining member configured to be overlaid on the adhesive member and comprising a guide surface configured to receive a length of the two or more catheters and a plurality of retaining portions to retain the catheters against the guide surface.
MEDICAL APPARATUS
Medical apparatuses for securing, protecting, retaining, and/or concealing various medical devices such as catheters or electrical leads are disclosed herein. The medical apparatus can be a garment which for use by a patient having a central venous catheter in place. Medical garments as disclosed herein can be used for a wide variety of medical devices attached to a patient, by implantation or otherwise, for varying lengths of time. Medical garments described herein may be used with any of a variety of medical devices which include or comprise one or more conduits used for medical treatment or diagnosis, including conduits which comprise catheters as well as electrical conduits such as electrical leads.
Radial artery sheath assembly
A radial artery sheath assembly includes a cuff that is wearable around a patient's wrist and a receiver is integrated into the cuff. The cuff is inflatable to compress an incision in the patient's wrist to achieve homeostasis for stopping bleeding. A ring is removably attachable to the cuff and a radial sheath is extendable through the ring to retain the radial sheath in the incision in the user's wrist when the ring is attached to the cuff. The ring is inflatable for compressing the radial sheath in the ring to inhibit the radial sheath from being removed from the incision. A lock is coupled to the ring and the lock releasably engages the receiver in the cuff for attaching the ring to the cuff.
INTRAVENOUS TUBING SECUREMENT BAND WITH ADJUSTABLE OVERALL LENGTH
An embodiment provides an adjustable intravenous (IV) securement band with non-occlusive retention in case of excessive force (i.e., automatically loosens) and traction for securing an IV to a patient’s arm. Embodiments may further include features such as guides and or channels on the band to hold tubing. Embodiments may be secured to patients to be used as a non-adhesive securement aid for tubing/catheter (e.g., IV’s, enteral tubes, Foley catheters, endotracheal tubes, nasogastric (NG) tubes, chest tubes, and the like) retention on patients. An embodiment includes a series of separable flaps, any of which may be separated from the band to adjust the length of the band
Medical apparatus
A medical apparatus can include a garment having a body portion with an outward facing surface and an inward facing surface and defines an access opening. The access opening provides access from the outward facing surface to the inward facing surface. An anchor secured on the outward facing surface can be configured for releasable securement of a first portion of a medical device. An outer panel can span at least a portion of the access opening and define a selectively closesable pocket configured to retain a second portion of the medical device. The garment can have a sleeve that defines an opening through which a third portion of the medical device extending through the arm opening can be routed and secured.
Support Device and Methods for Use
The present disclosure provides a device including comprising: (i) a concave surface at a first end of the device, (ii) a conduit at a second end of the device, and (iii) a pair of side surfaces extending inwardly at an acute angle from the first end of the device to the second end of the device.
Reversible ring for male urethral compression
Disclosed is a reversible ring for male urethral compression, which comprises a semicircular base (1) formed by a case and a cover of same, wherein the base (1) includes a locking tab (2), anti-slip imprints (3) and a flat belt (4) covered by a padded ring (7), a probe-holding clamp (5) being attached thereto, which is connected to the base (1) by means of a rod (6). The reversible ring is designed for carrying out (simply) both conventional retrograde urethrography (RUG) and new imaging techniques: urethrosonography (USG), urethro-computed tomography (urethro-CT) and urethro-magnetic resonance imaging (urethro-MRI), allowing the retrograde instillation of various radiological contrasts into the male urethra and bladder.
Securing pocket for loose portion of medical tubing
A securing pocket for managing the loose portion of a medical tube, such as a Nasogastric/Nasojejunal tube, while an implanted portion of the medical tube remains attached to the patient. The loose portion of the medical tube has a coiled section disposed within a receptacle formed between flexible front and rear panels. An integral flap overlaps the front panel to selectively close the receptacle and may be secured with a snap connector. Jam cleats are located along left and right edges adjacent a top edge of the receptacle. Each jam cleat forms a breach in the receptacle through which a tethered section of the loose medical tube extends. The jam cleats are configured to apply a progressive wedge force on the tethered section of the loose medical tube in response to tension along the tube. The jam cleat has flexible sides formed in a V-shape.
