Abstract:
The present invention relates to an intravenous tubing protector or organizing wrap support designed to consolidate multiple numbers of tubing by encircling all the tubing together. More particularly, the device would organize and prevent the tangling of intravenous tubing and may be made up of a flat, elongate, flexible and elastic strip of material of sufficient length to encircle at least two or more numbers intravenous tubing or may be made of a fitted and potentially predetermined width and length of semi-formed material that would retain its shape around the tubing but yet be comfortable to the patient. Attached to the ends of the flexible material that may be overlapped would likely include one or more fastener assemblies constructed of respective engagable upper and lower respective pluralities of resilient engaging elements which are separated by a distance sufficient to ensure that the captured loop of the intravenous tubing remains unkinked.
