A stabilisation system for securing a medical device such as a catheter to tissue, in particular skin, the stabilisation system comprising a main body having a first section and a second section displaceable relative to one another to translate the system between an undeployed state and a deployed state, each section including an array of microneedles extending from a tissue contacting surface of the body and which penetrate the skin in response to the above displacement, the stabilisation system further comprising a closure member displaceable between an open position exposing a retention zone on the body and a closed position at least partially occluding the retention zone, within which retention zone the catheter or other medical device may be captured.
