Abstract

Apparatus enables one or more needleless injection ports to be established on IV tubing as needed. An IV tubing-engaging portion secures the apparatus about the tubing. A puncturing member establishes fluid communication between the IV line and a sealing member on the apparatus. Connecting a syringe to the sealing member establishes fluid communication between the IV line and the syringe, enabling an injection to be made. When the syringe is withdrawn, the sealing member reseals to prevent fluid leakage from the IV line.
