Abstract
A medical device has an interior for containment of fluids; an opening into the interior, and an elastomeric wall having at least one perforation. The wall comprises a fixedly placed, flexible barrier across the opening. The device also defines a passageway extending inwardly from adjacent to the elastomeric wall, the passageway being proportioned to receive and form an annular seal with a connector tube that extends into the interior through the perforation.
