Catheter Securement Device is designed to securely hold the catheter in place. It prevents urine backflow and urethral trauma caused due to catheter movement or dislodgement. The wide range of catheter holders available at HPFY are lightweight and allow for easy patient movement. They leave the insertion site visible for examination and cleaning. They are gentle to wear and do not cause any skin trauma or injury.
There are different types of catheter stabilization devices available to meet the specific requirements of the users. They are explained below:
Adhesive catheter stabilization device easily molds to any contour and reduces the discomfort caused to attachment sites like inner thighs. It has an opening to insert the catheter tube and a small clasp to gently lock the catheter in place without obstructing the flow of urine.
Catheter leg straps are a good alternative for individuals who do not want to deal with adhesive catheter holders. They are wrapped around the circumference of the thigh to hold the catheter in place while allowing patient movement. These catheter securement devices can be removed and changed within a few minutes.
