"After a vascular access device has been inserted, catheter securement is one of the most important aspects of care and maintenance" Barton (2020).

Abstract:

The use of sutureless, adhesive securement devices in vascular access has become recommended as best practice, because they are a cost-effective, reliable solution. After a vascular access device has been inserted, catheter securement is one of the most important aspects of care and maintenance. The Grip-Lok® range offers secure, comfortable adhesive securement for all types of vascular access devices. The products use hypoallergenic medical adhesive, which reduces the risk of skin irritation and provides a reliable, adaptable alternative to suturing.
