摘要：
A suture securement apparatus for selectively securing one or more ends of a suture or cord while allowing adjustments in the tension or a full release of the sutures or cord intermittently after a prolonged period of time. The suture securement apparatus can be particularly adapted for use with a purse-string suture to close a percutaneous catheter insertion site without causing puckering or distortion of the skin at the purse string suture site. The suture securement apparatus allows for subsequent modification of the amount of tensioning or full release of the sutures at the catheter insertion site. An adhesive suture securement device to provide a cradle configured to secure a hub of a catheter and/or securing sutures to be utilized with a suture securement apparatus. A surgical securement and marking system utilizing one or more surgical securement apparatus that are color-coded to convey information about the associated intercorporeal structures. An extender tube connected to the surgical securement apparatus enables securement of intracorporeal structures within the surgical site from outside the surgical site.
