Body surface conduit fixing device – Type A

The Body Surface Conduit Fixing Device - Type A is a sterile, single‑use adhesive securement device designed to replace sutures for holding percutaneous catheters, drains, and tubes in place. It consists of a breathable non‑woven fabric base coated with a medical‑grade pressure‑sensitive adhesive and an integrated hook‑and‑loop (Velcro) fastener. The device is applied to intact skin adjacent to the catheter exit site, and the fastener is wrapped around the catheter to secure it without occluding the lumen.
By eliminating sutures, the Type A fixator reduces needle‑stick injuries, eliminates suture‑related pain and tension, and minimises micro‑motion of the catheter. This micro‑motion is a known risk factor for catheter‑related bloodstream infections and exit‑site infections, as it disrupts the healing tissue and can wick bacteria along the catheter surface. The broad adhesive base distributes the weight of the drain evenly, preventing pressure damage and accidental pull‑out. The low‑profile, soft fabric design conforms to body contours, making the device comfortable for patients during sleeping, walking, and bathing.
Clinically, the Type A device is indicated for securing chest tubes, abdominal drains, nasogastric tubes, epidural catheters, central venous catheters, peritoneal dialysis catheters, and surgical wound drains. It is suitable for use in surgical wards, intensive care units, interventional radiology, and home care settings. For the healthcare provider, the device simplifies drain management, reduces the need for frequent dressing changes, and lowers the risk of infection. For the patient, it offers greater comfort, reduced pain, and confidence that the drain will remain securely in place during recovery.

Body surface conduit fixing device – Type B

The Body Surface Conduit Fixing Device - Type B is a sterile, adhesive catheter stabilization device specifically engineered for the securement of epidural catheters, central venous catheters (CVCs), and large-bore drainage tubes . Unlike standard tape or suture methods, the Type B device features a rigid locking cradle or mechanical clamp integrated into a breathable, transparent adhesive dressing .
For the clinician (anesthesiologist, intensivist, or nurse), Type B devices offer a "hands-free" solution to catheter fixation. The specialized clamp holds the catheter wings or hub firmly in place, preventing pistoning (back-and-forth movement) that introduces bacteria into the bloodstream, thereby reducing Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSI) . The transparent film backing allows for continuous visual inspection of the insertion site without disturbing the dressing, facilitating early detection of phlebitis or drainage .
For the patient, the primary benefit is safety and comfort. Elimination of silk sutures removes the "pinching" and "pulling" sensation at the insertion site, which is often a major source of pain for patients with long-term central lines (e.g., oncology or dialysis patients). The hypoallergenic, waterproof adhesive allows patients to shower without fear of the dressing falling off, significantly improving quality of life. Type B devices are anatomically versatile, used on the chest for PICCs, the back for epidurals, and the abdomen for drainage tubes, offering a universal, standardized solution for device stabilization across the hospital .

Vacutainer Needle Holder

$1.00
A Vacutainer Needle Holder is a disposable plastic device (Class I/II medical device) used to securely hold double-ended blood collection needles and evacuated tubes during venipuncture, enabling safe and efficient collection of multiple blood specimens from a single venipuncture. Made from medical-grade ABS plastic or polypropylene, latex-free, approximately 12 cm length, with threaded end for needle attachment and flanged opening with flexible fingers to securely hold standard evacuated tubes (13 × 75 mm, 16 × 100 mm). Compatible with all standard double-ended needles and safety-engineered needles. Primary clinical applications include blood collection for laboratory testing (hematology, chemistry, coagulation, blood banking), multiple tube collection from single venipuncture, standardized venipuncture procedures, infection control (works with safety needles), and phlebotomy training. Critical safety precautions include single-use only (never reuse), secure needle attachment, immediate disposal of an entire unit with a needle in a sharps container, never recapping needles, and inspection for damage before use. Essential components of blood collection systems in hospitals, clinics, and laboratories.
