| PITTSBURGH /PRNewswire/ -- “I was using tape every day to secure the catheter to my skin which left it irritated with the skin tearing,” said an inventor from Port Byron, N.Y. “This inspired me to develop an improved means to secure the catheter.”
He developed the P.D. CATH SECURE CLIP to provide a more gentle alternative to belts and tape. This invention could provide increased safety for catheter patients and peace of mind as well as added convenience for healthcare workers. Additionally, it would prevent the peritoneal catheter from dislodging with movement. The original design was submitted to the Rochester office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers.
