Stabilization Devices

• The StatLock® Universal Plus Stabilization Device sets the new standard of excellence for suture-free stabilization of biliary and nephrostomy percutaneous drainage, and peritoneal lavage catheters.
• Advanced technologies now combine with the StatLock® Stabilization Device design sophistication to deliver skin-safe, suture-free, releasable stabilization of even the most lubricious catheters.
• The StatLock® Universal Plus Stabilization Device comes in four sizes, to fit virtually all percutaneous drainage catheters:
• small (6-8.5 Fr)
• medium (10-12 Fr)
• large (12-14 Fr)
• extra large (14-16 Fr) -The extra large size is especially adapted
  to secure 14-16 Fr. peritoneal lavage catheters.

Prescriptive Information

INDICATIONS FOR USE: The StatLock® stabilization device is compatible for medical tubes and catheters.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Known tape or adhesive allergies. Known sensitivity to benzoin. (Zinc Oxide PICC Neonatal Universal)

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

• Do not use the StatLock® stabilization device where loss of adherence could occur, such as with a confused patient, unattended access device, diaphoretic or non-adherent skin, or when the access device is not monitored daily.
• Observe universal blood and body fluid precautions and infection control procedures, during the StatLock® stabilization device application and removal.
• Suture the StatLock® stabilization device pad to skin if necessary or deemed necessary.
• Avoid the StatLock® stabilization device contact with alcohol or acetone, both can weaken bonding of components and the StatLock® stabilization device pad adherence.
• Minimize catheter manipulation during StatLock® stabilization device application and removal.
• Remove oil and moisturizer from targeted skin area.
• The StatLock® stabilization device pad adherence and catheter/tube position should be routinely inspected.
• Orient the StatLock® stabilization device so arrows point toward the catheter tip.
• The StatLock® stabilization device should be replaced every 7 days.
• A StatLock® stabilization device luer-lock connector must be used to secure venous and arterial catheters.
• Always apply the adhesive strip to central venous and arterial catheters at or near the insertion site when using a StatLock® stabilization device.
• This is a single use device. Reuse/and or repackaging may create a risk of patient or user infection, compromise the structural integrity and/or essential material and design characteristics of the device, which may lead to device failure, and/or lead to injury, illness or death of the patent.
• Do not re-sterilize. The sterility of the single use device is not guaranteed following re-sterilization because of an indeterminable degree of potential pyrogenic or microbial contamination which may lead to infection complications. Re-sterilization may compromise the structural integrity, essential material and/or design characteristics and may lead to an unpredictable loss of functionality and/or device failure.
• Special Patient Population
  • Do not use alcohol or acetone containing products on pre-term infants

Quality of Care

The Unrivaled Evidence You Need To Proceed

Clinical studies comparing the stabilization of catheter using tape versus StatLock® stabilization devices demonstrate that
the StatLock® stabilization devices are unrivaled in helping to improve patient outcomes, quality of care and economic
efficiencies. ^5,2,11

The results demonstrate that the innovative designs of StatLock® stabilization devices provide superlative results in promoting healthcare worker safety and patient satisfaction. The comparative data makes a persuasive case as to why StatLock® stabilization devices are more effective than traditional forms of tape and suture stabilization to achieve the positive outcomes
you seek.
