Abstract

A securement apparatus including a securing body and an engaging member is provided. The securing body may include a first passage therethrough for receiving one or more retention members in a looped configuration with first and second legs of the loop extending through the first passage, wherein a first side of the first passage has a generally uniform surface generally configured to conform to a periphery of at least one of the one or more retention members; and a second passage meeting the first passage. The engaging member may be securable within said second passage and positionable within the second passage to retain the one or more retention members within the first passage by encouraging a position of the one or more retention members to rest within the surface and by pinching both the first and second legs of the loop between the surface and the engaging member.
