Abstract:
A clamp for preventing separation of a connected subclavian catheter and intravenous tubing has a tube-like member having internal ridges adjacent one end for gripping a resilient bulb portion of the tubing and has a series of radially moveable jaw members on the other end bendable inwardly to grasp the end of a needle head on the catheter. A lock ring positioned about the tube-like member is slideable into engagement with cam members on the jaw members to lock the latter position.
