A pre-cut anchor tape is disclosed for securing an intravenous catheter to the arm of a person. A unitary strip of tape is slit to form three interconnected longitudinally extending bands, the bands being connected by an uncut portion near the mid-length of the strip. One of the side bands has an adhesive on its inner surface for adhering the tape to the person's arm. The intermediate band has an adhesive on its upper surface so that its free ends may be wrapped half-way around the catheter and adhered thereto and to the person's arm. The other side band has an adhesive on either its inner or outer surface and is used for additional securement of the catheter to the arm.
