Derma Cath Strip Reclosable Catheter Fastener

SKU: CS50

Reclosable Tube Fastener  |  Dynamic Flexible Adhesion  |  Minimizes Skin Shear & Tension Injury  |  Urinary, GT/JT, Wound Drain, Central Line & IV Compatible  |  Latex Free

A reclosable adhesive fastener strip for securing catheters, feeding tubes, wound drains, and IV lines at the skin exit site. The flexible material with dynamic adherence maintains secure tube positioning through patient movement, bending, and position changes — without the rigid pull that causes tube-site complications. Minimizes the skin shear, blistering, and irritation that occur when tubes are inadequately secured. The reclosable design allows the tube to be temporarily repositioned or accessed without removing the adhesive base from the skin. Compatible with urinary catheters, gastrostomy tubes, jejunostomy tubes, wound drainage systems, central line catheters, and multi-port IVs. Latex free. By Dumex/Derma Sciences (Integra LifeSciences). 50/pack.

Tube Type Compatibility

  • Urinary catheters (Foley, suprapubic, external)
  • Gastrostomy tubes (GT) — abdominal feeding tube exit sites
  • Jejunostomy tubes (JT) — jejunal feeding tube exit sites
  • Wound drainage systems — surgical drain tubes and bulb drain tubing
  • Central line catheters — PICC lines, tunneled catheters, central venous lines
  • Multi-port IVs and peripheral IV lines

Key Features

  • Reclosable fastener — the fastening mechanism opens and closes to allow temporary tube access or repositioning without removing the adhesive base from the skin
  • Dynamic adherence — adhesive maintains skin bond through patient movement, repositioning, and normal daily activity rather than peeling away at the edges during motion
  • Flexible material — moves with the skin and body rather than creating a rigid anchor point that concentrates tension stress at the exit site
  • Minimizes skin shear — reduces the mechanical drag and pull on skin at the tube exit site that causes shear injury, blistering, and irritation with extended wear
  • Reduces tube traction — by anchoring the tube away from the exit site, redirects accidental pull force from the exit site to the fastener
  • Multiple tube type compatibility — one SKU for urinary, enteral, drainage, and vascular access tube securement
  • Single-use per application
  • Latex free

Clinical FAQs

What is a catheter securement device and why is it clinically important?

A catheter or tube securement device is an adhesive fastener that anchors a catheter or tube to the skin near its exit site — preventing the tube from moving, pulling, or being accidentally dislodged by patient activity. Without securement, any tension applied to the tube (from patient movement, tubing weight, or accidental catching) is transmitted directly to the exit site, where it creates mechanical forces against the skin and the tube tract. Over time this produces skin shear injury (the skin surface is dragged sideways by friction forces), blistering at the adhesive margins of any tape used in its place, granulation tissue at tube-insertion sites, and in the worst cases, tube dislodgement — which is particularly serious for feeding tubes, central lines, and urinary catheters that require clinical replacement. A purpose-designed securement device like the Derma Cath Strip distributes and absorbs tube tension through the adhesive platform rather than concentrating it at the tube exit.

What does "reclosable" mean and when would I need to reopen the fastener?

A reclosable fastener has a closure mechanism (typically a hook-and-loop or fold-over locking strip) that can be opened and re-secured without removing the adhesive base from the skin. This is clinically useful in several situations. For urinary catheter users, the fastener may need to be opened to allow tube rotation — periodically rotating the catheter slightly at the fastener point reduces pressure point formation at the exit site. For enteral feeding tubes, the fastener may be briefly opened to allow slight position adjustment when the tube has migrated, before re-securing. For wound drainage systems, the fastener may be opened during dressing changes when the drain site is assessed. In all cases, the adhesive base remains on the skin during these adjustments — avoiding the skin trauma and adhesive strip consumption that would result from full removal and reapplication each time tube access is needed.

Why use a purpose-designed securement strip rather than standard medical tape?

Standard medical tape adheres flat against the skin and creates a fixed adhesion bond — there is no built-in mechanism to accommodate tube movement or to open and reclose. When a tube moves and standard tape does not move with it, the tape edges peel away from the skin and the adhesion fails progressively. Repeated tape application over the same skin area — the typical workaround — compounds skin stripping and irritation with each removal. Standard tape also cannot be opened to access or reposition the tube without tearing and replacing it. The Derma Cath Strip's flexible dynamic adherence, reclosable mechanism, and design that keeps tube tension away from the skin address these limitations specifically. For long-term tube management over days to weeks — feeding tubes, urinary catheters, wound drains — a purpose-designed securement device provides more reliable tube stability and better skin outcomes than tape alone.

Comfortable, firm, great for positional sleep therapy
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
This is just what I needed to breathe better in my sleep, my doctor recommended a pillow like this for sleep apnea symptoms. I have an upcoming surgery too, so i'm glad I was able to test it out a week prior and see how it can help me prop up in bed. Feeling better about my upcoming recovery knowing i'll have this great pillow to support me!

Literally perfect and exactly what I needed!
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
I can't recommend this enough! It was exactly what i was looking for! I have an annoying habit of researching everything for months before I purchase something that will get used this often. I finally decided on this one and I was very pleasantly surprised. I needed a wedge pillow to put at my back while sitting in bed. Mostly for when I'm working on my laptop. This one was the perfect height and perfect fit for me.I'm a female that is 5'4 and weigh about 117pds. I wanted something firm enough to support my back, and this most certainly does! It had a very pleasant appearance with the light gray sides. It has a removable cover I can take off and wash when needed. It's portable enough to move from room to room, also works great on my couch and it has amazing versatility. It can also be used as a pillow for someone that might need to sleep at a slight incline. It also works if you need to prop your legs up. It came vacuum packed. Once opened It said to let is sit for at least 24-48 hrs to give it time to properly inflate. For me, It plumped right up immediately! Again, from someone that does her research, if your looking for something like this at a reasonable price, this is it!

It was worth every cent
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
I have BPPV. It's a condition where tiny ear crystals come out of place and move within your ear canals - this fools your brain into thinking you're in motion, causing severe dizziness. The most common treatment is the Epley Maneuver, and that actually helps a lot. However, I was going through a period where every single day I'd wake up with severe dizziness. Even if I managed to do the Epley Maneuver and it worked, the entire rest of the day would be ruined because I'd still feel generally unwell and nauseous. I ended up getting a book about BPPV and the author strongly recommended sleeping at at least a 30 degree angle. So, that's why I ended up buying this wedge pillow... I started using it April 26 and today is May 17. Since I began using it as a pillow, I have not woke up dizzy again. That is so huge! It may be that sleeping at a 30 degree angle deserves 5 Stars but thought I'd give this pillow 5 Stars too, as it's been a great experience. If you suffer from this, here's how the angle should be...If you lay your head on a pillow and open your eyes, you should not be looking at the ceiling. With the right angle, you should be looking at where the wall meets the ceiling. If so, you know you're at the right angle. As far as pillow itself, I'd say the pillow case fabric is of average quality. Not really remarkable in any way. It seems decent. Good value for the price. The inside is firm (which is just what I needed) but comfortable, and I tend to not move around much the entire night. I like this very much and if it does start wearing out, I'll definitely come back here and buy another. Would recommend.

A bit too firm but great otherwise
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
I got this wedge pillow primarily to have something to lean my head against (I like to lay on my side when reading or looking at my phone at night sometimes), or to sit upright when reading in bed. It's very comfortable doing both now. It does a really good job at being a nice support for the back of my bed. Only negative is I feel it's too firm. I wouldn't use it as a primary pillow, but it's definitely good for back support at least. While I won't mark it down for this, I do find it very large. If you have anything smaller then a queen it may take up more of your bed then you'd like. Definitely recommend. Hopefully will last quite a long while as well.

So helpful after surgery.
Color: Solid Warm Gray, Size: 24x24x12 inch
Perfect support while recording from abdominal surgery. This pillow maintains its shape and is not overly soft. I used it vertically as a prop for watching television and then used it horizontally to prop myself up to sleep, once I returned to sleeping in bed. I used this daily for 6 weeks or so following surgery. The cover can be removed and machine washed. The non-slip nubbies are helpful. This pilllow is high quality and really helped to minimize pain and improve my sleep after surgery.
