Zusammenfassung:Devices, systems, and methods for stabilizing medical tubing protruding from a patient are disclosed herein. In various embodiments of the present disclosure, a medical tubing stabilization device is provided that may include a tube stabilization patch and a complementary medical garment. The tube stabilization patch may be applied to a patient who has medical tubing or a catheter protruding from their body to reduce or dampen movement on the body from the medical tubing in relation to the patient. The medical garment may be worn by the patient and placed in combination with the tube stabilization patch to further reduce the relative movement of the medical tubing. The present disclosure may be directed to reducing the level of medical tubing movement, both externally and internally, that a patient may experience, which decreases the risk of infection caused by catheterization of patients.
