20190160260 · 2019-05-30 ·

A catheter securement device that is mounted to the skin of a patient to secure a catheter with a hub and at least one tube member. The catheter securement device may include a flexible, thin, sheet-like base member and a releasable, flexible, thin, sheet-like retention member. The retention member may include at least one vertical slit that extends substantially perpendicular from the distal edge. The tube member may extend through the vertical slit. Also, a hole may be located between the distal edge and the proximal edge at the vertical slit. Additional vertical slits may be located about the retention member to accommodate additional tube members. The slits allow the tube members to extend from the retention member substantially midway between a distal edge and a proximal edge of the retention member, which in turn allows forces on the catheter to be transmitted to the middle of the base member.
