Cath Shield – Enhanced Central Line Fixation

Cath Shield improves central-line stability through a redesigned fixation system, aiming to reduce catheter movement, accidental dislodgement, and fixation-related complications.

Outcome Metrics

• Reduction in catheter movement and migration
• Reduction in accidental central-line dislodgement
• Reduction in fixation-related skin complications
• Improvement in catheter stability during patient movement
• Improvement in dressing integrity and device retention
• Reduction in central-line replacement and reinsertion procedures
• Device safety, fixation strength, usability, and patient satisfaction rates

Achievements

• Won 1st prize in MEDHA 2025
