An intravenous catheter securement device to secure an IV cannula, IV tubing, and attachments in place and to reduce the need for adhesive tape application, including a protective dressing body that secures an intravenous catheter between a cover flap and a lower portion thereof; a continuous pocket disposed between cover flap and the lower portion inner sides for securing a splint for immobilizing an IV site with minimal interference of the dressing body; an opening centrally disposed on the lower portion that serves as a viewing port over an IV site; a vertical slit centrally disposed on the lower portion between the front side and the opening that permits the dressing body to pass either side of a cannula and IV tube; and various attachment strips and tabs that secure an IV line to prevent kinking thereof and to prevent the IV line from weighing down on the cannula.
