Abstract

See full text

A protective sheath structure of the type primarily designed to be selectively positioned and removed from a surrounding, protective and substantially enclosing position relative to the cannula portion of a catheter assembly. Selective engagement and disengagement of the sheath structure is accomplished through activation of a locking structure including a pair of oppositely disposed finger elements pivotally disposed to selectively engage and disengage correspondingly positioned flange structure on the base of the catheter assembly. Positioning ribs on the interior of the sheath body provides substantial centering of the cannula within the interior of the sheath.
