Abstract
A cannula retaining device is disclosed in which a base includes a sleeve in the center thereof to provide a port for insertion of a cannula. A clamp including a compressible plug with an interior aperture that matches the diameter of the cannula is fitted into the base. The clamp includes a pair of laterally extending finger engageable arms which tighten the compressible plug on the cannula, thereby receiving the cannula while allowing adjustment, angulation and rotation.
