Abstract: An intravenous (IV) set system comprising a primary IV set having a plurality of access points facilitating access to one or more fluid pathways of the primary IV set, and an IV extension set removably coupled to the primary IV set to form an extended primary IV set, the IV extension set comprising an extension flow line defining an extension flow path, and a plurality of access ports on the extension flow line, at least two of the access ports comprising access ports located between first and second ends of the IV extension set. The IV set system further comprises a bypass manifold externally and removably coupled to the extension flow line of the IV extension set via the intermediate access ports on the extension flow line, the bypass manifold comprising a bypass flow line adjacent the extension flow line, and one or more access points that facilitate access to the bypass flow line, wherein the bypass manifold and the bypass flow line are operable to provide a bypass flow path through the IV extension so.

Abstract: An intravenous (IV) set system comprising a primary IV set defining a primary flow line of the IV set system. The primary flow line can include multiple access points along its length and feeds to a merging fluid pathway proximate to the distal terminus of the primary IV set. At least one secondary IV set with corresponding flow lines can be separably joined to the primary IV set to cause the secondary flow lines to be in fluid communication with the primary flow line. At least one of the IV sets can have a unique set of uniform marking indicia to facilitate rapid identification of the IV sets from other IV sets within the IV set system. Such marked and identified primary and/or secondary IV sets can be allocated to specific medical functions and/or can be for use by specific medical personnel to thereby minimize risk of error in administration of an IV to a patient. The IV set system can further comprise a merging fluid pathway about a primary IV set.

Abstract: A method for administering successive dosages of a medical fluid from a fluid injection device to a patient via an IV set during a medical procedure comprising: obtaining an IV set having a primary flow line defining a primary fluid path, and an access point defining an access port; establishing a fluid connection with a primary fluid in a fluid source with the primary fluid path; connecting a fluid injection device (e.g., syringe) to an unidirectional access port assembly comprising an anti-backflow device; injecting a first dosage of a secondary fluid (medication) from the fluid injection device into through an anti-backflow device (e.g., one-way check valve) and into the primary fluid path; maintaining the connection of the fluid injection device to the unidirectional access port assembly; and injecting a second dosage, or n number of additional dosages, of the secondary fluid through the anti-backflow device. Associated devices and systems are disclosed.

Abstract: An IV set and IV set system management device and associated systems and methods. The IV set and IV set system management device can include a body portion defining an opening to receive an IV set therein to couple the IV set and IV set system management device to the IV set. The IV set and IV set system management device can also include a plurality of protrusions extending from the body portion. In addition, the IV set and IV set system management device can include one or more recesses defined, at least in part, by at least one of the protrusions. The protrusions of the IV set and IV set system management device can be configured to mate with the one or more recesses of the IV set and IV set system management device, thus facilitating coupling of the IV set and IV set system management device with a similarly configured second IV set and IV set system management device.
