摘要：
A drainage catheter hub (12) for use in connection with a drainage catheter (10) to receive and secure a suture (14) therein, wherein the hub (12) includes: (i) a housing (18) having a channel (56) to accommodate the suture (14) therein； (ii) a bistable locking mechanism (22) positioned in the housing (18) and being adapted to provide selective securement of the suture (14)； and (iii) a resilient outer layer (20) utilized in connection with the bistable locking mechanism (22) and coupled to the housing (18). The bistable locking mechanism (22) is configured to: (i) allow movement of the suture (14) when the bistable locking mechanism (22) is in a first position； and (ii) minimize axial movement of the suture (14) when the bistable locking mechanism (22) is in a second position. The resilient outer layer (20) is adapted to allow a user to actuate the bistable locking mechanism (22) between the first and second positions to selectively secure and release the suture (14).
