Abstract: An integrated intravenous catheter includes a catheter adapter having a catheter and an inlet, with the catheter configured to be inserted into a patient's vasculature, a needle-free connector comprising a first port, a second port positioned opposite the first port, and a side port positioned the first port and the second port, with the second port including a valve member, intermediate tubing extending between the inlet of the catheter adapter and the first port of the needle-free connector, and extension tubing extending from the side port of the needle-free connector.

Abstract: Provided herein is a dressing for use with a catheter assembly, including a base defining a perimeter and an interior, the base comprising a bottom surface configured to contact skin of a patient and comprising a first opening in the perimeter, and a cover portion attached to the base and configured to cover a site of a catheter insertion, the cover portion comprising a second opening, the second opening configured to align with the first opening in the base when the dressing is applied to a patient’s skin.

Abstract: An instrument advancement device for advancing an instrument through a vascular access device includes a housing having a distal end and a proximal end, with the distal end configured to couple to a vascular access device, an instrument at least partially received within the housing, with the instrument having an advanced position where a distal end of the instrument extends beyond the distal end of the housing and a retracted position where the distal end of the instrument is received within the housing, an actuator configured to move the instrument between the advanced position and the retracted position, and an indicator configured to be visible only when the instrument is in the advanced position.

Abstract: A blood collection assembly couplable to a vascular access device, the assembly including a blood collection device having a first branch, a second branch, a third branch, and a channel configured for fluid communication therebetween, and a syringe having a syringe body, a plunger, and a stopper, wherein the plunger and the stopper are compressible and retractable within the syringe body, and wherein the syringe is coupled to the first branch of the blood collection device. The assembly also includes a testing sample collection device coupled to the second branch of the blood collection device, as well as an access portion coupled to the third branch of the blood collection device and configured to provide fluid communication between the vascular access device and the blood collection device.

Abstract: A fluid transfer device including a housing, a distal introducer portion configured to penetrate a needleless access connector of a vascular access device, and a wheel member rotatable with respect to the housing and operably coupled to a probe to advance and retract the probe through the distal introducer portion. The fluid transfer device also includes a connector member positioned proximate the distal introducer portion, wherein the connector member includes a pair of opposing distal clip portions, a pair of opposing proximal clip portions, and a locking member. The locking member is operably coupled to the wheel member and is configured to prevent actuation of at least a portion of the connector member when the wheel member is rotated to a first position and to allow actuation at least a portion of the connector member when the wheel member is rotated to a second position.

Abstract: Provided herein is a blood collection device having a tube having a proximal end, a distal end, and a sidewall therebetween defining an interior, the interior configured to receive a blood sample through one or more openings at the distal end of the tube when the distal end of the tube is positioned in a blood vessel and an obturator slidably disposed relative to the tube and received within the interior of the tube.
