Abstract
An apparatus for regulating a flow of fluid in a tube. The apparatus comprises a housing comprising a passage configured to at least partially receive the tube, an adjustment mechanism rotatably coupled to the housing and selectively configurable between a first position and a second position, and a stopper at least partially provided in the housing and coupled to the adjustment mechanism. The stopper is configured to engage the tube when the adjustment mechanism is rotated from the first position to the second position thereby constricting the tube.
