See full text

An adaptor for use with a medical catheter comprises a housing having a first tubular channel with a first longitudinal axis, a dial having a second tubular channel with a second longitudinal axis, and an adaptor fitting removably connected to the second tubular channel. The dial is rotatable between an open position and a closed position when the adaptor fitting is connected thereto. In the open position the first tubular channel is fluidly connected to the second tubular channel, and in the closed position the first tubular channel is not fluidly connected to the second tubular channel. The dial may be configured such that it is not rotatable between the open position and the closed position when the adaptor fitting is not connected thereto. The housing may comprise an upper housing member, an intermediate housing member, and a lower housing member.
