Abstract:
A medical device securement system is configured to secure medical devices such as catheters in place. The securement system includes an anchor pad that attaches to a patient's skin. A malleable support base is attached to an upper surface of the anchor pad. The support base has front and back inclined surfaces that are separated by an offset surface that extends generally normal to both of the inclined surfaces. A spot of adhesive is applied to one or more of the inclined surfaces. A catheter assembly includes a connector having a first connector portion with a diameter larger than an adjacent second structure. The catheter assembly is attached to the support base with the first connector portion engaged with and supported by the back inclined surface, and the second connector portion engaged with and supported by the front inclined surface.

Claim (Index 23):
A method as in  claim 22 , wherein the connector has an axis, and an outer surface of the connector extends 360\u00b0 about the axis, and wherein when the connector rests upon the second support surface while engaged with the adhesive, more than 180\u00b0 of the connector outer surface is not in contact with the securement device.
