Abstract
An adjustable stabilizer is provided for securing a medical device to a patient, relative to the angle and point of insertion. The stabilizer has a bottom surface and first and second top surfaces which meet at an apex of the stabilizer. The angle of the first top surface relative to the bottom surface may be adjusted to correspond with the medical device's insertion angle to permit the medical device entering the patient's body to extend from the insertion site on the patient's body along the first top surface, over the apex, and along the second top surface back towards the patient's body, thereby reducing stress at the insertion site, discomfort for the patient, and the risk of insertion site bleeding, while minimizing risk of damage to the medical device. The stabilizer may transition between a relaxed state and a flexed state to releasably secure the medical device to the stabilizer.
