A detachable holder for immobilizing a flexible tubing at a site adjacent its point of connection to a medical device inserted in a patient to feed a therapeutic fluid into a vein or artery or to withdraw fluid from the patient. The holder is formed by a flexible plastic strip having upstanding end wings provided with snap-in key hole slots in axial alignment. These slots are adapted to receive a short section of the tubing which then bridges the wings and is held thereby. Attached to the underside of the strip is one component of a hook and loop fabric fastener whose other component is bonded to the outer face of an adhesive tape. By adhering the tape to the skin of the patient at a position adjacent the inserted medical device and then fastening the holder thereto, one is able to immobilize the tubing to prevent a tug thereon from displacing the inserted medical device.

A detachable holder for immobilizing a flexible tubing at a site adjacent its point of connection to a catheter or other medical device used to feed fluid to a patient or to withdrawn fluid therefrom, said holder comprising: A. A strip of flexible synthetic plastic material forming a base having upstanding end wings each having a slotted keyhold therein, the keyholes being in axial alignment and having holes therein adapted to receive a short section of the tubing which then bridges the wings and is held thereby, each of said holes having a slot leading thereto defined by walls, at least one of which may be flexed to enlarge the slot to facilitate entry of the tubing, said base having holding means on the underside thereof, said wings being inclined to define with said short section a structurally stable trapezoid which resists folding of the wings; and B. detachable means cooperating with said holding means to detachably anchor said base on the skin surface of the patient at said site.
