A vacuum tube receiver can include a housing that has a proximal end and a distal end. The housing can include a hollow interior and a proximal opening for receiving a vacuum tube into the hollow interior. The distal end of the housing can form an adapter for coupling the vacuum tube receiver to an intravenous system. The vacuum tube receiver may also include one or more spikes that extend proximally into the hollow interior to form a blood flow path. The vacuum tube receiver can include a number of features to control the pressure and/or flowrate of blood into a vacuum tube.

Vacuum tube receiver for drawing blood through a peripheral IV catheter

A catheter adapter may include a distal end, a proximal end, a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end, and a side port. A central axis of a fluid path extending through the side port may be disposed at an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the catheter adapter. The angle may be less than 45°. Additionally or alternatively to the angle being less than 45°, the catheter adapter may include a wedge and/or an insert configured to facilitate instrument delivery to the catheter assembly via the side port.

Systems and methods of facilitating instrument delivery to a catheter assembly

Disclosed is a stabilization device and system for stabilizing integrated catheters, and associated methods. The stabilization device can include a platform and a dressing. The platform can have a skin-adhering side configured to stick to a patient's skin and catheter-securing side configured to secure an integrated catheter. The catheter-securing side of the platform can include a contoured recess extending into a body of the platform configured to secure a catheter tube or a hub of the integrated catheter, as well as an extension port of the integrated catheter, a wing assembly of the integrated catheter, or both the extension port and the wing assembly. The dressing can include a transparent polymeric film over a textile pad. The dressing can have a skin-adhering side configured to adhere the dressing to both the integrated catheter secured in the platform and the patient's skin.

Stabilization device, system, and methods thereof for integrated catheters

A catheter adapter may include a distal end, a proximal end, a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end, and a side port. A central axis of a fluid path extending through the side port may be disposed at an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the catheter adapter. The angle may be less than 45&#xb0;. Additionally or alternatively to the angle being less than 45&#xb0;, the catheter adapter may include a wedge and/or an insert configured to facilitate instrument delivery to the catheter assembly via the side port.
