Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A catheter stabilization and interrogation device includes a flexible substrate with a proximal portion, a distal portion spaced from the proximal portion, and an intermediate portion located, at least partially, between the proximal portion and the distal portion. The intermediate portion conforms to a patients body, and a bottom surface of the substrate has an adhesive to secure the device to a patient. A stabilizer secured to the proximal portion stabilizes the catheter relative to the patients vasculature and a receptacle located within and/or upon the distal portion receives an interacting element and positions the interacting element relative to the catheter. A monitoring device, constructed within at least the intermediate portion, monitors at least one event within the patient.
