Abstract
A syringe having barrel and a non-luer tip that is not connectable to an intravenous device is disclosed. The syringe as an enteral collar engagement feature adjacent the distal end of the syringe barrel. The syringe has an enteral collar having a distal end and proximal end, the proximal end having a syringe engagement feature complementary to and engagable with the enteral collar engagement feature. The enteral collar is sized to permit connection to an enteral device and prevent connection to a device having a luer connector
Claims22
A syringe comprising:
- a syringe barrel having a distal end, an open proximal end, a sidewall extending between the distal end to the open proximal end, the sidewall defining a chamber, and an enteral collar engagement feature adjacent the distal end of the syringe barrel;
- a non-luer tip dimensioned such that the non-luer tip is not connectable to an intravenous device, the non-luer tip defining a fluid pathway in fluid communication with the chamber;
- and
- an enteral collar having a distal end configured to make a threaded connection to an enteral device and a proximal end, the proximal end having a syringe engagement feature complementary to and engagable with the enteral collar engagement feature, the enteral collar surrounding the non-luer tip when the syringe engagement feature is engaged with the enteral collar engagement feature, and the enteral collar being sized to permit a threaded connection of the syringe to an enteral device and prevent connection to a device having a luer connector.

A syringe comprising:
- a syringe barrel having a distal end, an open proximal end, a sidewall extending between the distal end to the open proximal end, the sidewall defining a chamber, a distal extension wall extending from the distal end of the syringe barrel and an enteral collar engagement feature on the distal extension wall;
- a non-luer tip dimensioned such that the non-luer tip is not connectable to an intravenous device, the non-luer tip defining a fluid pathway in fluid communication with the chamber;
- and
- an enteral collar having a distal end configured to make a threaded connection to an enteral device and a proximal end, the proximal end having a syringe engagement feature complementary to and engagable with the enteral collar engagement feature, the enteral collar surrounding the non-luer tip when the syringe engagement feature is engaged with the enteral collar engagement feature, and the distal end of the collar includes an outwardly extending lug for engaging a threaded, non-luer connector, and the enteral collar sized to permit connection of the syringe to an enteral device.

A syringe comprising:
- a syringe barrel having a distal end, an open proximal end, a sidewall extending between the distal end to the open proximal end, the sidewall defining a chamber;
- a non-luer tip dimensioned such that the non-luer tip is not connectable to an intravenous device, the non-luer tip defining a fluid pathway in fluid communication with the chamber;
- a peripheral enteral collar engagement feature between the distal end of the syringe barrel and the non-luer tip;
- and
- an enteral collar having a distal end and a proximal end, the proximal end having a syringe engagement feature complementary to and engagable with the enteral collar engagement feature, the enteral collar surrounding the non-luer tip when the syringe engagement feature is engaged with the enteral collar engagement feature, and the enteral collar sized and including internal threads to permit a threaded connection to an enteral device;
- wherein the enteral collar prevents connection to a device having a luer connector.
