The original CATH-SECURE is a multi-purpose, latex- and DEHP-free standardized system for holding larger-sized tubes, including Foley catheters, without reducing or limiting their flow.
How the CATH-SECURE System Works
Providing a comfortable fit, the CATH-SECURE can stay in place for close to a week and allows for straightforward access to tubing using open-close tabs. The user is less likely to experience skin or tube trauma and avoids having to re-tape shifting or detaching tubes.
In a medical setting, this arrangement prevents nurses from having to reapply or routinely change catheters and other tubing. At home, the patient can easily apply and detach the system without assistance.
To Use
- The patient can place the CATH-SECURE’s hypoallergenic adhesive backing on the top of the thigh.
- While in use, the catheter’s tab should surround the medical tube or catheter, helping it remain in place without reducing movement and limiting potential detachment.
Sizing
Aside from catheters, this CDC- and OSHA-compliant system available in two sizes accommodates subclavian line ports, EKG lead wires and dialysis tubing.
