CV catheter case
A CV catheter is a thin tube that delivers an anticancer drug directly to the central vein.
Children who have long-term infusion therapy such as chemotherapy for pediatric cancer, IVH and TPN, so-called "central parenteral nutrition", which takes high-calorie infusion into the body to treat digestive system disorders and heart diseases. Most of us have a CV catheter embedded in our body .
However, its tip protrudes from the body and looks grotesque, and above all, if the tube is fluffy near the body, it is a hygiene problem.
Especially for small children, there is a concern about a pull-out accident that may cause them to pull out.
Therefore, each medical institution will guide you to the "CV catheter case" .
CV Catheter Amulet "CV Catheter Case"
It is customary for parents to make CV catheter cases.
The CV catheter case not only prevents accidents caused by pulling out and prevents infection, but it also acts as a talisman with the creator's desire to "heal quickly ..." by making it by a guardian. I am.
* CV catheter case is not a product whose efficacy is guaranteed. Regarding handling, please watch over your child under self-management.

How to sew HOW TO
STEP 1
Sew all four sides together.
The first three sides can be sewn inside out, and the last one side can be turned upside down and sewn like a needle as shown in the photo.
There is no problem even if you sew a festival. It's okay to sew normally like a stitch!
CV Catheter can cause infection without proper hygiene. Also, if you do not properly inform your child of its importance, it may lead to damage or a pull-out accident.
Therefore, it is recommended by medical institutions to properly attach the CV catheter case (CV catheter protective cover) and perform hygiene management.
However, it is not sold in hospitals or on the market, but is currently handmade by parents .
Based on my own experience, Mommy's Hours Shop proposes products with a focus on "Mothers can finish by hand sewing while attending at the hospital."
We are proposing it as a good item to keep the route of a loose CV catheter together, and we do not guarantee specific effects such as prevention of withdrawal and infection.
It is necessary for a long treatment period, so I would like to introduce how to sew it if you can make it by hand when you can afford it. I would appreciate it if you could refer to it.
* As one of the fixing methods, we propose a sample neck strap, but due to management problems, it is up to the customer to decide whether or not to use it, and it is now possible to select it in the cart. We are here.
* The lining of the Mommy's Hours catheter case is designed with a plain gauze material so that hygiene can be seen visually. It is highly recommended to replace it if it becomes conspicuous.
CV charm
We have added a pocket to the existing catheter case to store amulets and CV protective caps!
CV charm means CV amulet.
It is a product that not only protects the CV, but also wants you to get well soon.
We also offer collaboration products with Osaka Prefecture's specialty "Senshu Towel".
CV charms are available at the Charming Care Mall.
