A fixation device (10) for fixating a catheter relative to a skin comprises a basic foil (12) having opposite first and second surfaces and defining a first end. A first adhesive coating is applied to the first surface. A first pad (24) is included in the device intended to be arranged adjacent to a perforation site, defining a convex marginal surface having a radius of curvature of at least one order of magnitude larger than the outer diameter of a catheter (32). The marginal surface provides a support surface for the catheter positioned in facial contact therewith for arranging the catheter in a loop and turning the catheter from an orientation substantially perpendicularly relative to the skin to an orientation substantially parallel with the skin and for preventing the catheter from sliding along the marginal surface. The first pad is supported by the basic foil at the first surface of the basic foil. A second adhesive coating is applied to a part of the second surface of the basic foil below the first pad and defining a rectilinear adhesive material boundary line constituting a folding line (17) for folding the basic foil onto the first pad.
