BRAIDLOCK® : Securing Lifelines® The BRAIDLOCK® is an adjustable line-fixation device. It is effective, efficient and easy to use. Most importantly, it reduces the cost of medical care. Please see our short product video here: The BRAIDLOCK®:* enables lines to be attached, adjusted and detached more quickly and efficiently than is otherwise possible * reduces the use of sutures, thereby reducing the risk of needlestick injury * is easily adjustable by nursing staff * reduces post operative care costs, the risk of lines slipping and infection risk * improves patient outcomes * is manufactured in the United Kingdom, with a "CE" mark * is protected by worldwide patents The device is similar to a “Chinese Finger Trap.” It increases in diameter when compressed, allowing the insertion of a line, drain or catheter. When it is released, the diameter contracts forming a tight grip on the inserted line. The BRAIDLOCK® can be attached to the patient in one of three ways: by Suture, by integrated Adhesive Pad, or by hook & loop strap. The BRAIDLOCK® is suitable for use in a variety of clinical settings including cardiothoracic surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology, plastic surgery, ENT, and neo-natal intensive care. The BRAIDLOCK® is presently available for sale in the UK and certain other markets in sizes of 2.5Fr to 36Fr. For more information or to arrange a demonstration, please contact us.
