Baxter 3400LFC - CATHETER, LRG, FOLEY, STABALIZATION DEVICE, 100/CS

Grip-Lok 3400LFC Large Foley Catheter Securement

Grip-Lok 3400LFC are catheter stabilization devices that are strong enough to lock Foley catheters securely in place, yet versatile enough for almost every patient. Indwelling urinary catheters should be routinely secured to reduce the risk of urethral erosion or accidental dislodgment. Optimal management of an indwelling catheter includes securing the catheter to the thigh or abdomen in a way that prevents the catheter or its retention balloon from exerting excessive force on the bladder neck or urethra.

As recommended, the 3400LFC attaches at the catheters stiffest point, which usually is just below the bifurcation where the retention balloon is inflated, to prevent occlusion of the catheter lumen. The 3400LFC is sized for most adults while the smaller 3600PFC may be preferred for pediatric and small adult patients. The Grip-Lok 3400LFC will secure latex and silicone Foley catheters as well as triple lumen catheters and the design does not allow the Foley catheter to rotate at the securement site causing flow blockage. Adhesive Foley catheter securement products are an attractive alternative to strap devices that should be used with caution in patients with severe peripheral vascular disease affecting the lower extremities

Grip-Lok 3400LFC Features

  • Soft and flexible design with no hard plastic parts for improved patient comfort.
  • Easy to apply, open, inspect and adjust lines, tubes and catheters.
  • Provides superior securement for both horizontal and vertical lifting accidental catheter pulls.
  • All Grip-Loks are hypoallergenic, breathable and latex-free to reduce the risk of allergic reactions and skin irritation.

Benefits of Grip-Lok

Safe:

Grip-Lok is latex free and is packaged in individual sterile units, allowing you to use the Grip-Lok close to the wound site or right in the sterile field. The medical grade hypoallergenic tape allows the patient''s skin to breathe, thus reducing the risk of rashes and other skin irritations.

Simple:

Grip-Lok is applied in the same simple manner as a bandage and can be easily placed and adjusted by gloved hands. Available in 3 sizes, each is used and applied in the same identical manner, thus encouraging standardization of important dressings.

Secure:

Grip-Lok employs specialized adhesives and a self-gripping fastener to keep lines, tubes, and catheters locked securely in place. Once secured, Grip-Lok prevents dislodgment and/or migration, thus reducing the risk of lost lines, duplication of work, and patient discomfort or distress.

Standardized:

Grip-Lok conforms to the new Infusion Nursing Standards of Practice and can eliminate the need for sutures and unscheduled catheter restarts, thus directly reducing needlestick injuries.

Manufactured catheter securement and stabilization devices are now listed as "preferred" in the new Infusion Nursing Standards of Practice.

  • Soft and flexible fabric design improves patient comfort.
  • Hypoallergenic, breathable and latex-free to reduce risk of allergic reactions and skin irritations.
  • Simple to apply, inspect and adjust.
  • Provides superior securement for both horizontal and vertical lifting accidental pulls.

Grip-Lok vs Tape

Grip-Lok offers significant advantages over tape. It is designed to hold significantly more securely and reduce complications. Every line pull or IV restart that is avoided results in better patient care and reduced costs.

Promote Consistent, Convenient, Cost Effective Care

Enhance patient care with comfortable, reliable securement.

  • Per the 2011 CDC Guidelines for the Prevention of Intravascular Catheter-Related Infections, Catheter Stabilization is recognized as an intervention to decrease phlebitis, catheter migration and dislodgement, and may be advantageous in preventing CRBSIs.
  • INS Standards of Practice advocate catheter stabilization devices as "the preferred alternative to tape or sutures when feasible.
  • Use of catheter stabilization devices may reduce risk of needlestick injuries and associated complications.
  • Baxter catheter stabilization devices have been demonstrated to reduce the rate of unscheduled restarts by up to 62% when compared to tape , which helps decrease facility costs.
  • VITAL HOLD Products offer familiar designs that nursing professionals can consistently apply.
  • VITAL HOLD Devices have a soft, non-rigid design which may provide added comfort for patients.

Application of Grip-Lok 3400LFC for Large Foley Catheter Securement

Grip-Lok Large Foley Catheter securement (3400LFC) does not utilize adhesive to secure the catheter in place. This design secures the catheter in a channel created by a foam insert and the fabric loop over-strap. The loop over-strap is divided in half and is placed on both sides of the catheter bifurcation crotch. Grip-Lok is applied in the same simple manner as a bandage and can be easily placed on skin with gloved hands.
