Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de canulation automatique pour fixer automatiquement une canule à un patient. Le dispositif de canulation automatique présente un dispositif de fixation pour fixer la canule au patient à l'aide d'un support d'adhésif. Le dispositif de canulation automatique présente un appareil de positionnement, qui est conçu pour positionner un élément de retenue de canule de la canule au niveau d'une zone cutanée du patient. Le dispositif de canulation automatique présente un appareil d'actionnement destiné à un moyen de guidage, le moyen de guidage étant conçu pour guider le support d'adhésif vers la zone cutanée. L'appareil d'actionnement est conçu pour actionner le moyen de guidage et, ainsi, pour déplacer le support d'adhésif au moyen du moyen de guidage dans la direction de la zone cutanée, le support d'adhésif entrant en contact avec la zone cutanée à travers le déplacement et, une fois collé à cette dernière et au moins après le collage, le support d'adhésif étant disposé de façon à être relié à la canule
