Abstract A holder is disclosed herein for releasably retaining a conventional syringe in place on the body of a person undergoing medical treatment which includes a flat base having at least two outwardly extending pairs of support members arranged in fixed, parallel spaced apart relationship on opposite ends of the base. A selected one of the support members is provided with a shaped recess for insertably receiving the syringe in conformed relationship and a snap-lock slot arrangement is formed in the selected support member adjacent the recess for releasably retaining the syringe in place. Retainers are operably carried on the holder base for supporting and retaining the tubing used to introduce fluids to the syringe. Hook and pile fastening arrangements are cooperatively disposed on the base for detachably coupling the holder to a limb or other body part of the person. The term syringe includes needles, gravity flow needles, straight intravenous applicator needles, plunger-type syringes or the like.
In a unitary one-piece integral medical device holder for use in combination with a specially shaped medical device assembly comprising the combination of: an elongated base; at least a pair of support members outwardly extending from each end of and integral with said base in fixed, parallel spaced apart relationship; means integrally carried on a selected one of said support members adjacent to and laterally disposed with respect to said base for releasably holding said medical device assembly thereon; means carried on said support members for detachably connecting said base to a body portion of a user; tubing retainers integrally carried at a junction between said support members and said base for removably connecting with said medical device assembly; said releasable holding means being a shaped structure having an open recess conforming to the configuration of said medical device assembly; snap-lock means integral with said structure and cooperatively disposed between said structure and said medical device assembly for detachably connecting said medical device assembly to said structure so as to be laterally of and adjacent to said base; said detachable connection means include a pair of straps and hook and pile fastener arrangements carried on opposite sides of said support members and cooperating to be releasably coupled together; and said shaped structure provided in said selected one of said support members is provided with a shaped recess therein for insertably receiving a portion of said medical device assembly having a conformal shape therewith.
