Abstract
An injection site platform for use in adding a needle injected medication to a parenteral fluid being provided to a patient includes a base and an outlet port of a size and shape to receive a needle piercable resealable diaphragm. There is a conical wall which connects the outlet with the base, with the smaller diameter portion of the conical wall being integral with the outlet and the larger diameter portion terminating at the base. The conical wall provides a needle guide to the diaphragm positioned in the outlet and access for the application of an antiseptic wipe to the diaphragm. A portion of the platform has an opening for a tube carrying parenteral fluid, whereby the tube may be manually constricted by pressing it against the platform adjacent the opening.
