Description

SECUREMENT DEVICE FOR CATHETER ASSEMBLY, KIT, AND METHOD OF USE

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a securement device for a catheter assembly, a kit including the securement device, and a method of using the securement device.

Background

Catheter assemblies may be used for various purposes, such as feeding, air supply, and/or liquid removal. In some cases, catheter assemblies may be used to administer medications and fluids to a patient. Such catheter assemblies typically include a cannula that is inserted into a patient’s skin at an insertion site. Catheter assemblies may need to be secured to a skin of the patient to prevent movement of the catheter assemblies. For example, the catheter assemblies may be secured to the skin of the patient to prevent the catheter assemblies from being pulled out, or otherwise move in ways that may adversely affect functioning of the catheter assemblies.

Catheter assemblies are generally secured to the skin of the patient using conventional securement units, such as, tapes, patches, and sutures. However, conventional securement units may not properly secure the catheter assemblies to the skin. Specifically, such securement units may not adequately stabilize the catheter assemblies, which may cause undesirable movement of the catheter assemblies during use. In some cases, conventional securement units may result in various complications, such as dislodgment and accidental removal of the catheter assemblies from the skin of the patient, phlebitis, extravasation/infiltration, leakage, occlusion, and bloodstream infections.

Securement units, such as, tapes or patches may allow partial or micro movement of the catheter assembly which can lead to discomfort for the patients. Further, use of sutures to secure the catheter assemblies to the skin may lead to suture related infections and complications. In some cases, a clinician may have to access the insertion site of the cannula, for example, to perform a maintenance procedure around the insertion site. However, conventional securement units may not allow access to the area around the insertion site. Further, clinicians may have to remove the securement units for accessing the insertion site, which may cause the cannula to piston and may warrant additional efforts in stabilizing the cannula and other components of the catheter assembly. Thus, an improved securement device may be needed to overcome the abovementioned challenges of conventional securement units and methods.

Detailed Description

In the following description, reference is made to the accompanying figures that form a part thereof and in which various embodiments are shown by way of illustration. It is to be understood that other embodiments are contemplated and may be made without departing from the scope or spirit of the present disclosure. The following detailed description, therefore, is not to be taken in a limiting sense.

In the following disclosure, the following definitions are adopted.

As recited herein, all numbers should be considered modified by the term “about”. As used herein, “a”, “an”, “the”, “at least one”, and “one or more” are used interchangeably. As used herein as a modifier to a property or attribute, the term “generally”, unless otherwise specifically defined, means that the property or attribute would be readily recognizable by a person of ordinary skill but without requiring absolute precision or a perfect match (e.g., within +/- 20 % for quantifiable properties).

The term “substantially”, unless otherwise specifically defined, means to a high degree of approximation (e.g., within +/- 10% for quantifiable properties) but again without requiring absolute precision or a perfect match.

The term “about”, unless otherwise specifically defined, means to a high degree of approximation (e.g., within +/- 5% for quantifiable properties) but again without requiring absolute precision or a perfect match.

Terms such as same, equal, uniform, constant, strictly, and the like, are understood to be within the usual tolerances or measuring error applicable to the particular circumstance rather than requiring absolute precision or a perfect match.

As used herein, the terms “first” and “second” are used as identifiers. Therefore, such terms should not be construed as limiting of this disclosure. The terms “first” and “second” when used in conjunction with a feature or an element can be interchanged throughout the embodiments of this disclosure.

As used herein, “at least one of A and B” should be understood to mean “only A, only B, or both A and B”.

Unless specified or limited otherwise, the terms “attached”, “connected”, “coupled”, and variations thereof, are used broadly and encompass both direct and indirect attachments, connections, and couplings.

As used herein, the terms “layer”, “sheet”, and “dressing”, or variations thereof, are used to describe an article having a thickness that is small relative to its length and width.

As used herein, the term “polymer” refers to both materials prepared from one monomer such as a homopolymer or to materials prepared from two or more monomers such as a copolymer, terpolymer, or the like. Likewise, the term “polymerize” refers to the process of making a polymeric material that can be a homopolymer, copolymer, terpolymer, or the like. The term “copolymer” refers to a polymeric material prepared from at least two different monomers.

As used herein, the term “insertion site” refers to a location at which a cannula of a catheter is inserted into a skin of a patient.

As used herein, the term “maintenance procedure” refers generally to a procedure that includes cleaning and/or sanitizing of a skin of a patient proximal to an insertion site. The maintenance procedure may be carried out by a medical practitioner at regular intervals during, for example, an intravenous therapy.

As used herein, the term “pistoning” or “pistoning movement” refers to a movement of a cannula of a catheter relative to an insertion site.

As used herein, the term “inserted into skin” when used in conjunction with the terms “cannula” or “catheter” refers to insertion of a catheter or a cannula through a skin of a patient. For example, a distal end of a catheter or a cannula may be located at any desired anatomical site including, as non-limiting examples, within the lumens of veins and/or arteries, within the atria and the ventricles of the heart, within the ventral body cavity, within the spinal canal, within the subarachnoid space, within the intracranial space, and within fat and/or muscle tissues.

Catheter assemblies may be used for administering medications and fluids to a patient, air supply, and/or liquid removal. Such catheter assemblies may need to be secured to a skin of the patient to prevent movement of the catheter assemblies. For example, the catheter assemblies may be secured to the skin of the patient to prevent the catheter assemblies from being pulled out, or otherwise move in ways that may adversely affect a functioning of the catheter assemblies. Such catheter assemblies typically include a cannula that is inserted into a patient’s skin at an insertion site.

Conventional securement units, such as, tapes, patches, and sutures may not properly secure the catheter assemblies to the skin of the patient. Specifically, conventional securement units may not properly stabilize the catheter assemblies, thereby allowing undesirable movement of the catheter assemblies during use. In some cases, use of conventional securement units may result in various complications, such as, dislodgment and accidental removal of the catheter assemblies from the skin of the patient, phlebitis, extravasation, occlusion/infiltration, leakage, and bloodstream infections. Securement units, such as, tapes or patches may allow partial or micro movement of the catheter assembly which can lead to discomfort for the patients. Further, use of sutures to secure the catheter assemblies to the skin may lead to suture related infections and complications.

In some cases, a clinician may have to access the insertion site, for example, to perform a maintenance procedure around the insertion site. However, conventional securement units may not allow access to the area around the insertion site. More particularly, clinicians may have to remove the securement units for accessing the insertion site, which may cause the cannula to piston and may warrant additional efforts in stabilizing the cannula or other parts of the catheter assemblies. Thus, an improved securement device may be needed to overcome the abovementioned challenges of conventional securement units and methods.

The present disclosure provides a securement device for a catheter assembly having a catheter hub and a cannula configured to be inserted into a skin of a patient at an insertion site. The securement device includes a base assembly configured to be detachably secured to the skin of the patient. The base assembly includes a base mount. The base assembly further includes a slider track fixedly coupled to the base mount and including a first coupling feature. The first coupling feature includes a first arcuate shape along a length of the first coupling feature. The securement device further includes a hub assembly slidably coupled to the base assembly. The hub assembly includes a hub slider including a second coupling feature complementary to the first coupling feature. The second coupling feature includes a second arcuate shape along a length of the second coupling feature similar to the first arcuate shape of the slider track. The length of the second coupling feature is less than the length of the first coupling feature. The second coupling feature at least partially and slidably engages with the first coupling feature, such that the hub slider is slidable relative to the base assembly along the slider track. The hub assembly further includes a hub base fixedly coupled to and disposed on the hub slider opposite to the slider track. The hub base is configured to be detachably secured to the catheter hub and the cannula. Further, the hub assembly is slidably movable relative to the base assembly to a desired position along the slider track. The present disclosure also relates to a kit including the securement device, and a method of using the securement device.

The slider track and the hub slider may together allow movement of the hub assembly relative to the base assembly. Thus, clinicians may be able to easily access the insertion site for maintenance procedures, such as, cleaning procedures. Further, the design of the slider track and the slider channel may prevent pistoning of the cannula when the hub assembly is moved to different position along the slider track. The securement device allows easy and quick positioning of the hub assembly at any desired position based on a sliding force applied on the hub assembly. Moreover, a minimum distance defined between the insertion site and the hub base is constant at any position of the hub assembly along the slider track. Thus, the securement device eliminates any possibility of pistoning/movement of the cannula when the hub assembly is being moved.

The securement device secures the catheter assembly firmly onto the skin of the patient. Specifically, the securement device may firmly secure various components (such as the catheter hub, the lumens, and the cannula) of the catheter assembly to the skin of the patient. The securement device may prevent movement of the catheter assembly and eliminates requirements of any additional tapes, patches, or sutures. It should be noted that once the securement device is placed on the patient’s skin, no additional dressing may be required.

Further, a base of the base assembly may be removably secured to the skin of the patient. The base includes one or more pull tabs that may be gripped by a user, such as, a clinician/medical personnel. The pull tabs may be pulled to detach the base from the skin. An adhesive layer firmly secures the base on the skin of the patient. The adhesive layer may include a stretch release adhesive such that, based on a pulling of the pull tabs, the adhesive layer loses its adhesion property. Subsequently, the base can be released easily to remove the securement device from the skin of the patient without causing discomfort to the patient. Moreover, the securement device may prevent dislodgement and accidental removal of the catheter assembly from the skin of the patient.

Thus, the securement device of the present disclosure may firmly secure the catheter assembly to the skin of the patient, may inhibit undesirable movement of the catheter assembly, may prevent infection at the insertion site, may facilitate easy removal of the securement device after use, and may allow clinicians to easily access the area around the insertion site without removing the securement device or pistoning of the cannula.

Referring now to Figures, FIG. 1A illustrates a schematic perspective view of a securement device 100 for a catheter assembly 10, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1A, the catheter assembly 10 is disposed on a skin 12 of a patient 14. As illustrated in FIG. 1A, the catheter assembly 10 includes a catheter hub 16 and a cannula 18 configured to be inserted into the skin 12 of the patient 14 at an insertion site 20. Further, the cannula 18 is at least partially received within the catheter hub 16.

The catheter assembly 10 further includes at least one lumen 22 at least partially received within the catheter hub 16. In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1A, the at least one lumen 22 include three lumens 22. In other words, the catheter assembly 10 is a triple lumen catheter assembly 10. However, a number of the lumens 22 may vary based on desired application and/or infusion attributes. The lumens 22 are fluidly connected with the cannula 18.

In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1A, the catheter hub 16 includes a pair of opposing wings 24 and one ormore holes 26. Specifically, in the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1A, the catheter hub 16 includes a corresponding hole 26 on each of the pair of opposing wings 24.

In some embodiments, the catheter assembly 10 may include a central venous catheter (CVC). The CVC may be referred to as a central line, a central venous line, or a central venous access catheter. The CVC may be used to access large, centrally located veins (not shown), which is often required for critically ill patients, for patients requiring prolonged intravenous therapies for reliable vascular access, and to administer fluids that may harm smaller peripheral veins. Therefore, in some embodiments, at least a portion of the cannula 18 may be inserted into veins located at a neck (e.g., an internal jugular vein), into veins located at a chest (e.g., a subclavian vein or axillary vein), or into veins located at a groin (e.g., a femoral vein) of the patient 14. In some embodiments, the catheter assembly 10 may include a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). The PICC may be suitable for insertion into veins located at an arm of the patient 14. However, the catheter assembly 10 may include any suitable type of catheter, which may be selected based on desired application attributes.

Thus, the catheter assembly 10 may be used to administer an intravenous therapy (e.g., medication or fluids for parenteral nutrition), to obtain blood for analysis, and/or to provide an access point for bloodbased treatments, such as, dialysis or apheresis. The catheter assembly 10 may further be used to measure one or more properties of the blood (e.g., a "central venous oxygen saturation"), administer fluid or blood products for a large volume resuscitation, and/or measure a central venous pressure.

As shown in FIG. 1A, the securement device 100 includes a base assembly 102 configured to be detachably secured to the skin 12 of the patient 14. The base assembly 102 includes a base mount 104. The base mount 104 has a substantially tapered shape. Specifically, the base mount 104 tapers towards the insertion site 20. The base assembly 102 further includes a slider track 106 fixedly coupled to the base mount 104. The slider track 106 includes a first coupling feature 108. The first coupling feature 108 includes a first arcuate shape 110 along a length LI (shown in FIG. 2) of the first coupling feature 108. The length LI is embodied as a curved length herein.

The securement device 100 further includes a hub assembly 112 (shown in FIGS. 1A and 4) slidably coupled to the base assembly 102. The hub assembly 112 is slidably movable relative to the base assembly 102 to a desired position along the slider track 106. The hub assembly 112 includes a hub slider 114 (shown in FIGS. 2, 3A, 3B, and 4). The slider track 106 and the hub slider 114 may together allow movement of the hub assembly 112 relative to the base assembly 102. Based on the sliding of the hub assembly 112, clinicians may be able to easily access the insertion site 20 for maintenance procedures, such as, cleaning procedures. Specifically, clinicians may be able to access a 360 degrees area around the insertion site 20. Further, the design of the slider track 106 and the hub slider 114 may prevent pistoning of the cannula 18 when the hub assembly 112 is moved to any position along the slider track 106. The hub assembly 112 further includes a hub base 116 fixedly coupled to and disposed on the hub slider 114 opposite to the slider track 106. The hub base 116 is configured to be detachably secured to the catheter hub 16 and the cannula 18.

Further, the base assembly 102 includes a base 118. The base 118 is substantially oval shaped. The base 118 may be a passive dressing. In other words, in some embodiments, the base 118 may be nonocclusive. However, the base 118 may be an interactive dressing. In other words, in some embodiments, the base 118 may be semi-occlusive or occlusive. In some embodiments, the base 118 may function as a barrier against penetration of bacteria. In some embodiments, the base 118 may maintain hydration of an area of the skin 12 to which the base 118 is removably secured and may reduce infection at the area of the skin 12 to which the base 118 is removably secured.

The base 118 may include a stretchable polymeric material. The base 118 may be made of a stretchable material that may conform to undulated surfaces (e.g., the skin 12 of the patient 14). Therefore, in some embodiments, the base 118 may be configured to exhibit high elasticity. In some embodiments, the base 118 may have a high tensile strength, a low elastic recovery, and a high elongation at break.

In some embodiments, the base 118 may include at least one of a polymeric film, a polymeric foam, a polymeric hydrocolloid, and a polymeric alginate. In some embodiments, the base 118 may include polyolefins, such as polyethylene, including high density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, linear low density polyethylene, and linear ultra-low density polyethylene, polypropylene, and polybutylenes; vinyl copolymers, such as polyvinyl chlorides, both plasticized and unplasticized, and polyvinyl acetates; olefinic copolymers, such as ethylene/methacrylate copolymers, ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymers, acrylonitrile - butadiene-styrene copolymers, and ethylene propylene copolymers; acrylic polymers and copolymer; and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the base 118 may be in a form of single or multi-layer films, non-woven films, porous films, foam-like films, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the base 118 may be fabricated using any suitable method of film forming, such as, extrusion, co-extrusion, solvent casting, foaming, non-woven technology, and the like.

The base 118 includes one or more pull tabs 120 that may be gripped by a user, such as a clinician or a medical professional. The pull tabs 120 may be pulled to detach the base 118 from the skin 12. The pull tabs 120 allow gripping of the base 118 for application and removal of the securement device 100 and also allow the clinician or any other medical professional to peel-off a release liner 122 (shown in FIG. IB) for application of the securement device 100 onto the skin 12 of the patient 14. For removal of the base 118 from the skin 12 of the patient 14, the base 118 may be stretched by gripping and pulling the pull tabs 120. Thus, the base 118 may be easily removed from the skin 12 of the patient 14 by stretching the base 118 based on gripping of the pull tabs 120. The pull tabs 120 are disposed along a portion of a perimeter of the base 118. In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1A, the base 118 includes two pull tabs 120 disposed at opposing ends 119, 121 of the base 118. The pull tabs 120 are adhesive free zones, such that the pull tabs 120 are not attached to the skin 12 of the patient 14. In some examples, the pull tabs 120 may include markings, such as, arrows that indicate a direction along which the pull tabs 120 need to be pulled for removal of the securement device 100. The markings may also include text, such as, “PULL” in addition to the arrows. FIG. IB illustrates a schematic cross-sectional view of the base assembly 102. For clarity and understanding, thicknesses of various components of the base assembly 102 have been depicted in an exaggerated manner. Referring to FIGS. 1A and IB, the base 118 includes a first major surface 126 fixedly coupled to the base mount 104 opposite to the slider track 106, and a second major surface 128 opposite to the first major surface 126. The base assembly 102 further includes the release liner 122. In some embodiments, the release liner 122 does not cover the pull tabs 120. The base assembly 102 further includes an adhesive layer 130 at least partially disposed on the second major surface 128 and configured to detachably secure the base assembly 102 to the skin 12 of the patient 14. It should be noted that the pull tabs 120 are free of the adhesive layer 130.

In some embodiments, the adhesive layer 130 includes a stretch release adhesive. In some embodiments, an adhesive strength of the stretch-release adhesive may be less than a cohesive strength of the stretch-release adhesive, such that upon stretching of the base 118, adhesion capabilities of the stretchrelease adhesive may essentially disappear. Specifically, a tack of the stretch release adhesive may be lost upon stretching of the base 118. Thus, based on pulling of the base 118, the adhesive layer 130 loses its adhesion property. Subsequently, the base 118 can be released easily to remove the securement device 100 from the skin 12 of the patient 14. The base assembly 102 may be easily removed from the skin 12 of the patient 14 without causing discomfort to the patient 14. Moreover, the base assembly 102 may prevent dislodgement and accidental removal of the catheter assembly 10 from the skin 12 of the patient 14.

As shown in FIG. 2, the slider track 106 includes a pair of end walls 132 circumferentially spaced apart from each other and disposed at respective opposing ends 134, 136 of the slider track 106. Each of the pair of end walls 132 is configured to engage with the hub slider 114 to limit a sliding movement of the hub slider 114 at the respective opposing end 134, 136 of the slider track 106.

Referring now to FIGS. 1A and 2, the slider track 106 has a first center of curvature Cl. Further, the hub assembly 112 includes the hub slider 114. The hub slider 114 includes a second coupling feature 138 complementary to the first coupling feature 108. The second coupling feature 138 includes a second arcuate shape 140 along a length L2 of the second coupling feature 138 similar to the first arcuate shape 110 of the slider track 106. The length L2 of the second coupling feature 138 is less than the length LI of the first coupling feature 108. The length L2 is embodied as a curved length herein. The second coupling feature 138 at least partially and slidably engages with the first coupling feature 108, such that the hub slider 114 is slidable relative to the base assembly 102 along the slider track 106. Further, the second coupling feature 138 at least partially and frictionally engages with the first coupling feature 108, such that the hub slider 114 is stationary relative to the slider track 106 upon removal of a sliding force Fl, F2 on the hub assembly 112. It should be noted that the sliding force F 1 is applied in a direction that is opposite to a direction in which the sliding force F2 is applied. By virtue of the slider track 106 and the hub slider 114, the securement device 100 may allow easy and quick positioning of the hub assembly 112 at any desired position based on the sliding force Fl, F2 applied on the hub assembly 112. Further, the hub slider 114 has a second center of curvature C2 coinciding with the first center of curvature Cl of the slider track 106. Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3 A, the base mount 104 includes an arcuate guide rail 142 spaced apart from the slider track 106. Further, the hub base 116 includes an engaging feature 144 configured to slidably engage with the guide rail 142 of the base mount 104. Upon sliding of the hub slider 114 relative to the slider track 106, the engaging feature 144 correspondingly slides along the guide rail 142. The engaging feature 144 is embodied as a projection herein that extends from the hub base 116. The engaging feature 144 is arcuate in shape and corresponds to a shape of the guide rail 142. In other examples, the engaging feature 144 may include a groove or slot defined by the hub base 116 instead of the projection. Further, the base mount 104 may also include one or more markings that show a direction along which the hub slider 114 may be moved for positioning the hub assembly 112 at a desired position.

FIGS. 3A and 3B illustrate a cross-sectional view illustrating the hub slider 114 coupled to the slider track 106.
