Disclosed is a stabilization device and system for stabilizing integrated catheters, and associated methods. The stabilization device can include a platform and a dressing. The platform can have a skin-adhering side configured to stick to a patient's skin and catheter-securing side configured to secure an integrated catheter. The catheter-securing side of the platform can include a contoured recess extending into a body of the platform configured to secure a catheter tube or a hub of the integrated catheter, as well as an extension port of the integrated catheter, a wing assembly of the integrated catheter, or both the extension port and the wing assembly. The dressing can include a transparent polymeric film over a textile pad. The dressing can have a skin-adhering side configured to adhere the dressing to both the integrated catheter secured in the platform and the patient's skin.

Stabilization device, system, and methods thereof for integrated catheters

A valve actuator that moves in a catheter assembly between a first position where a valve is closed and a second position where the valve is open, the valve actuator including a shaft portion at a distal end of the valve actuator that is configured to pierce the valve, a mating portion at a proximal end of the valve actuator that is configured to engage a Luer device, a diameter reduction region that connects the shaft portion and the mating portion, and a plurality of windows that extend through the valve actuator for flushing fluid, the plurality of windows being disposed in the diameter reduction region, wherein each of the plurality of windows does not extend a full length of the diameter reduction region.

Multi-use blood control safety catheter assembly

A catheter assembly comprises a catheter (), a needle () having a sharp distal tip disposed within the catheter (), a catheter hub () connected to the catheter () having the needle () passing therethrough, the catheter hub () including a valve () that selectively permits or blocks a flow of fluid through the catheter (), a valve actuator () that moves between a first position and a second position, and a return member () that returns the valve actuator () from the second position to the first position, and a needle protection member () that encloses the sharp distal tip of the needle ().

A catheter assembly () comprises a catheter (), a needle () having a sharp distal tip, a catheter hub () housing the catheter (), the catheter hub () having a collar () including a notch (), a needle shield () connected to the catheter hub () when the needle () is in a first position, and a clip () disposed in the needle shield () that cooperates with the needle (), wherein the clip () engages the catheter hub () in the first position of the needle (), and the clip () disengages the catheter hub () via the notch () when the needle () is retracted to a second position to cover at least a portion of the needle (). The clip () is mounted in the outer housing () of the needle shield () via a spade () having an outer wall () exposed to the outside of the needle shield (), in order to reduce the overall width of the needle shield ().

Safety IV catheter with V-clip interlock and needle tip capture

A catheter assembly () comprising a catheter (), a needle () having a sharp distal tip (), and a catheter hub () connected to the catheter () having the needle () passing therethrough, the catheter hub () including a valve () having a preformed opening () that selectively permits or blocks a flow of fluid through the catheter (), a first inner diameter () that closes the valve (), and a second inner diameter () larger than the first inner diameter (), the second inner diameter () opening the valve (), wherein the valve () is in an open position upon axially compressing the valve () into engagement with the second inner diameter () of the catheter hub (), and the valve () is in a closed position upon releasing the valve () to engage the first inner diameter () of the catheter hub ().
