Description
The BD StatLock Arterial Select Stabilization Device is a stabilization device for arterial lines, pairing an adhesive securement pad with a retainer and an 8 inch luer lock extension set. It serves critical care teams who secure arterial catheters against the pistoning and pull that threaten line placement.
- Sliding-Post Retainer – the red retainer closes over the catheter hub and locks it to the pad
- Tricot Adhesive Wings – the two wings spread flat on the skin for a broad, gentle hold
- 8 Inch Extension Set – the included luer lock extension moves the connection point away from the insertion site
Arterial Line Securement That Locks the Hub, Not Just the Dressing
Arterial lines fail by movement: a hub that pistons in and out of the vessel irritates the site and risks dislodgement with every patient motion. Securement answers that failure mode mechanically, by fixing the hub to a pad that is itself adhered across a wide skin area. In this device the red sliding-post retainer closes over the hub while the tricot wings hold the pad's position, spreading the load the way tape alone cannot. The built-in 8 inch extension set relocates the working connection away from the insertion site, so line manipulations tug on the extension rather than the catheter. Devices come 25 to a pack for critical care units that secure arterial lines as a daily routine.

Why Securement Beats Tape for Arterial Lines
Tape holds tubing. It does not hold a hub against the forces an active patient generates, and arterial sites announce that difference through lost lines and restarts. A retainer device is engineered against those exact forces.
- Mechanical Hub Lock – the retainer grips the hub itself, which tape cannot do
- Load Spreading – wide tricot wings distribute pull across skin instead of concentrating it at the site
- Calmer Connection Point – the extension set moves daily manipulations away from the insertion site
- StatLock Category Leader – StatLock is the securement name hospitals specify, the reference device in its class
