Abstract
The invention relates to a retaining clip for retaining at least one medical line in a shortened lateral position and/or to a supportive surface. In one embodiment, the device includes an elongated, tapered helical wire structure defining a hook shaped leading edge, a loading channel, an inner lumen and a handle on the trailing end. The hooked shaped leading edge, inner lumen and channel are configured to accept the largest diameter of medical wires the device is destined to be used with. Sections of the medical wire may be captured in the hook portion, and multiple rotations of the structure by the handle, moves the medical wire(s) into the channel and the inner lumen to be retained.
