Abstract
A multiuse disinfection cap assembly configured to disinfect a connector, comprising a cap, a housing, and a chamber. The cap comprises a closed top, an open bottom, a first sidewall comprising a ridge, and a center arm. The housing comprises an open top, an open bottom, and a sidewall comprising a plurality of ridges. The chamber comprises a perforated bottom and an open top, which comprises an opening configured to allow the center arm of the cap to engage a stopper located within the chamber. Each time the cap is pushed in a downward direction, the ridge of the cap slides over a ridge of the plurality of ridges of the housing to allow the cap to advance incrementally, and the center arm of the cap moves the stopper within the chamber to cause a disinfectant in the chamber to spray onto the connector.
