Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
A catheter and external securing device therefor comprising in combination, a disc having a central aperture therethrough for slidably receiving said catheter, said disc having a lateral slot extending between said aperture and the disc periphery, said catheter being substantially rigid and having a through bore including axially aligned openings at either end thereof, an elongated needle having a puncturing point thereon for slidable reception within said catheter bore, and said catheter and said needle having enlarged portions thereon adjacent one end thereof, for facilitating manipulation and use thereof, whereby said disc slot permits lateral sliding movement of said disc onto and about said catheter at a point intermediate the length thereof without requiring removal of the same from a body.
