The disclosed tube securement device attaches to the patient's body and to the tube, while allowing for a section of the tube to be detached from the tube securement device. The tube securement device comprises a backing with adhesive coated sections. The backing comprises a first end section, a second end section, and a midsection, separating the first end section from the second end section. The tube securement device further comprises a first adhesive on at least a portion of the first major surface of the first end section, a second adhesive on at least a portion of the first major surface of the second end section, and wherein the first major surface of the midsection is free of tacky adhesive.

Tube securement device

A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer can be configured to be adhered to a nose, the base layer having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, and a leg. The leg can be connected to and extending from the first end, can be elongated along a longitudinal direction, and can be configured to secure a nasogastric tube.

Nasogastric tube securement systems and methods of using same

A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer can be configured to be adhered to a nose, having a first major surface comprisng a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, a second end configured to secure a nasogastric tube, and a middle section connecting the first end and the second end. The middle section can be elongated along a longitudinal direction, and the second end can include at least two legs extending downwardly from the first end, each leg separated from an adjacent leg by an acute angle.

The base layer configured to be adhered to a nose, having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, and a second end configured to secure a nasogastric tube. The coupling layer can further include a cutaway region extending from a periphery of the coupling layer adjacent the second end into a central portion of the coupling layer, such that the second end comprises legs that are separated by the cutaway region, and such that the first end is free of the cutaway region.

Articles and methods of making articles are described. In one embodiment, an electrode is described, comprising an ionically-conductive hydrogel layer comprising a first major surface and opposing major surface. The electrode further comprises a discontinuous primer layer disposed on the first major surface ionically-conducting hydrogel layer and an electrically conductive member or a connector component thereof, in contact with the first major surface of the ionically-conducting hydrogel layer. In another embodiment, an article is described comprising a hydrogel layer comprising a first major surface and opposing major surface; a discontinuous hydrophobic primer layer disposed on the first hydrogel layer; and a hydrophobic adhesive or hydrophobic backing bonded to the primer and discontinuous hydrophobic primer layer of the hydrogel.
