The invention relates to device for covering a catheter access to a human or animal body, particular a central venous catheter access, comprising a wedge-shaped guiding element, which is arranged between the catheter of the catheter access and the surface of the human or animal body during use, in order to guide the catheter relative to the entry point into the human or animal; and a self-adhesive covering element for covering and fixing the wedge-shaped guiding element and the catheter in the area of the entry point into the human or animal body, which self-adhesive covering element is affixed to the surface of the human or animal body during use in such a way, that the catheter and the wedge-shaped guiding element are at least partially arranged between the covering element and the surface of the human and/or animal body.

Device for covering a catheter access to a human or animal body, in particular a central venous catheter access

The invention relates to a safety needle device, particularly for the puncture of a port implanted subcutaneously in a human or animal body, comprising a first housing; a hollow needle, wherein the needle has a first sub-section and a second sub-section, and the first sub-section extends along a puncture axis, which runs at a right angle to the surface of the human or animal body, and the second sub-section of the needle being arranged at a right angle to the first sub-section, substantially parallel to the surface of the human or animal body, wherein the hollow needle is or can be connected to the first housing, particularly in the region of the second sub-section; a cover comprising a through-hole for receiving the first sub-section of the needle, wherein the cover can be moved from a first position into a second position relative to the first housing, wherein the movement occurs substantially along the puncture axis; and an at least partially flexible limiting element for limiting the relative movement between the first housing and the cover in the second position; wherein the device is characterized in that the cover has, on the surface facing away from the human or animal body, a guide sleeve for the first sub-section of the needle.

Safety needle device, particularly for the puncture of a port implanted subcutaneously in a human or animal body

Protective device for protecting a port needle or Huber needle against shifting and for protecting at least one port needle puncture site and/or incision site. A frame-like spacer element is provided with an inner opening, recess or cutout for surrounding or receiving the port needle or Huber needle, which frame-like spacer element has a height corresponding to at least half the height of the port needle or Huber needle and has at least one means for fixing or securing the spacer element in the area of a port.
