Abstract
A disinfection and flushing device for an intravenous patient connector requires only a single coupling of a disinfection cap of the device to the patient connector, both to scrub the patient connector and to administer flushing solution through the connector via a flush syringe that is already coupled to a housing portion of the device. The disinfection cap and housing portions of the device are coupled together during the initial patient connector scrub and flush operation. Thereafter, in some embodiments, the housing and its attached, spent flush syringe, are selectively separable from the disinfection cap portion of the device, so that the disinfection cap remains in place on the patient connector. In other embodiments, the entire device, including its cap, housing and the flush syringe that is coupled to the housing, are removed from the patient connector.
