A catheter securement device (100) holds a medical article such as a catheter hub (430) or a connector fitting (300) in position upon the body of a patient and at least inhibits longitudinal movement of the medical article. The securement device (100) includes a retainer (120) and at least one anchor pad (110a, 110b). The retainer (120) forms a central channel (140) into which at least a portion of the medical article is inserted. The retainer (120) includes at least one abutment that can abut against a contact point or surface on the medical article. The abutment, in conjunction with a second abutment and/or a tapering shape of the central channel (120), inhibits motion of the medical article in proximal and distal directions through the central channel (140). For this purpose, the abutment surface(s) can lie either within or outside the channel (140).

L'invention concerne un dispositif de fixation de cathéter (100) permettant de maintenir en place un article médical, notamment un embout de cathéter (430) ou une fixation de connexion (300), sur le corps d'un patient, et au moins d'inhiber un déplacement longitudinal de cet article médical. L'article de fixation (100) comprend un dispositif de retenue (120) et au moins un tampon d'ancrage (110a, 110b). Le dispositif de retenue (120) forme un canal central (140) dans lequel au moins une partie de l'article médical est insérée. Le dispositif de retenue (120) comprend au moins une butée pouvant buter contre un point de contact ou une surface de l'article médical. Cette butée, conjointement à une seconde butée et/ou à une forme conique du canal central (120), permet d'inhiber un déplacement de l'article médical, dans une direction proximale et dans une direction distale, par le biais du canal central (140). A cet effet, la surface ou les surfaces de butée peuvent reposer soit à l'intérieur du canal (140) ou à l'extérieur du canal (140).
