Abstract: A needleless injection port assembly includes first and second body parts and a resilient barrier received within the body. A cannula attached to the first body part is received within an internal cavity of the resilient barrier. The resilient barrier is moveable between a less axially compressed first position in which fluid flow through the injection port assembly is prevented and a more axially compressed second position in which fluid flow through the assembly is allowed. An interference fit is provided between the resilient barrier and the cannula to seal against fluid flow through the cannula when the resilient barrier is in the first position. The cannula has an internal fluid passageway with a non-circular cross section providing increased fluid flow.

Abstract: An injection port assembly comprises a body having a first mating structure and a second mating structure coupled together. A resilient barrier is received within the body and compressible between a less compressed first position in which fluid flow through the injection port assembly is blocked, to a more compressed second position in which fluid flow through the injection port assembly is permitted. A hollow cannula is coupled to the first mating structure and configured to be received within the resilient barrier. The hollow cannula has a distal end portion configured to extend through the resilient barrier when the resilient barrier is in the more compressed second position. The hollow cannula is opaque and both the second mating structure and the resilient barrier are transparent, so that any fluid leakage into the internal cavity of the resilient barrier is visible through the resilient barrier and the second mating structure against an opaque background provided by the opaque cannula.

Abstract: A single piece device enables medical clinicians to clean and disinfect both an injection port (needleless I.V. connector) and a vascular access catheter hub. The device has a body with a first end having a blind hole with a wall adapted to be engageable with the threads on the housing of an IV connector and a bottom surface adapted to engage the top surface of the IV connector. The device body has a second end defining a male-luer slip extending out of a recess. The male-luer slip is adapted to extend into a standard vascular access catheter hub such that it engages the inner walls of the catheter hub, and the recess is adapted to receive and be engageable with the outside thread element of the catheter hub.
