1. An integrated vascular delivery system adapted to be placed about an insertion site on a patient, comprising:

  • a frame configured to receive a catheter insertable in the patient to transfer a fluid at the insertion site, wherein the frame includes;

    a first hub that provides a first anchoring point on the patient;

    a second hub that provides a second anchoring point on the patient; and

    a pair of flexible lateral members, including a tubular lateral member, extending between the hubs and configured to be spaced apart from the catheter;

    wherein the first and second anchoring points are distributed around the insertion site to anchor the frame to the patient, thereby stabilizing the catheter; and

    a fluidic channel that fluidically communicates with the catheter, wherein the fluidic channel passes through the tubular lateral member and at least one of the hubs, and includes a fixed turnabout portion in which fluid flows in a direction different from that within the catheter.
