Abstract
An embodiment provides an adjustable intravenous (IV) securement band with non-occlusive retention in case of excessive force (i.e., automatically loosens) and traction for securing an IV to a patient's arm. Embodiments may further include features such as guides and or channels on the band to hold tubing. Embodiments may be secured to patients to be used as a non-adhesive securement aid for tubing/catheter (e.g., IV's, enteral tubes, Foley catheters, endotracheal tubes, nasogastric (NG) tubes, chest tubes, and the like) retention on patients. An embodiment includes a series of separable flaps, any of which may be separated from the band to adjust the length of the band.
