Abstract
A catheter access system comprises and integrally molded base sheet which forms first and second opposed slide valve walls. The slide valve walls form an upwardly-open longitudinal valley therebetween. An elongated sliding member is received for slidable movement within the longitudinal valley. A plurality of slide valve inlet ports extend through the first slide valve wall. A slide valve outlet port extends through the second slide valve wall. A plurality of syringes are mounted on the integrally-molded base sheet for fluid communication with the slide valve inlet ports. The elongated sliding member is movable between a plurality of discrete longitudinal positions to individually select slide valve inlet ports for connection to the slide valve outlet port. The sliding member has a plurality of sliding member passageways corresponding to the slide valve inlet ports. The passageways are positioned so that they each connect between their corresponding slide valve inlet ports and the slide valve outlet port at the different discrete longitudinal positions of the elongated sliding member.
