An anchoring system for an elongated medical article comprises an anchor pad and a retainer mounted upon the anchor pad. The retainer includes a base, a cover, and a compressible member including a receptacle into which the medical article to be retained is placed. When the cover is closed, the medical article is secured within the receptacle by the pressure of the compressible member and the cover upon the medical article. One or more biasing members act upon the compressible member to increase the frictional forces acting on the retained section of the medical article. The receptacle may form a channel that follows a curved path through the retainer. The retainer may also include guide extensions to support the medical article along a transverse bend toward the skin of the patient.
Un système d'ancrage pour un article médical oblong comprend une plaque d'ancre ainsi qu'un élément de retenue monté sur la plaque de l'ancre. L'élément de retenue comprend une base, un couvercle ainsi qu'un élément compressible présentant un réceptacle dans lequel l'article médical à retenir est placé. Lorsque le couvercle est fermé, l'article médical est fixé à l'intérieur du réceptacle par la pression de l'élément compressible et du couvercle sur l'article médical. Un ou plusieurs éléments de sollicitation agissent sur l'élément compressible pour augmenter les forces de frottement agissant sur la partie retenue de l'article médical. Le réceptacle peut former un canal suivant un chemin incurvé à travers l'élément de retenue. L'élément de retenue peut également comprendre des prolongements de guidage destinés à porter l'article médical le long d'une courbure transversale, vers la peau du patient.
