  • Publication number: 20240066266
    Abstract: A non-integrated vascular access system includes a connector having a distal port configured to be coupled to a hub of a catheter, a proximal port, a first lumen extending between the distal and proximal ports and in fluid communication with a second lumen defined by the catheter when the distal port is coupled to the hub, a side port arranged in the connector between the proximal and distal couplers, with the side port configured to be in fluid communication with the first lumen, and a fluid conduit having a proximal end coupled to the side port and a distal end, with the fluid conduit in fluid communication with the side port and configured to extend distally from the connector. The system includes a stabilization portion connected to the connector and configured to contact a patient, and a stabilization anchor platform spaced from the connector and positioned along the fluid conduit.

  • Publication number: 20230067368
    Abstract: A catheter adapter including a housing and an extension portion extending from the distal end of the housing and defining a passageway configured to receive a catheter. The first material of the housing is more flexible than the second material of the extension portion. The catheter adapter may further include a body contact portion comprising an upper surface corresponding to a surface of the housing and a lower surface defining an outer surface of the catheter adapter. The housing may include a body, an access port extending from the body, and a plurality of protrusions extending from the body and/or the access port. The body contact portion covers at least a portion of the housing, and the protrusions are embedded in and are completely surrounded by the body contact portion. The catheter adapter may further include a connection portion connecting the extension portion to the body contact portion.
