Abstract
A medical device assembly comprises a drainage member having a proximal end, a distal end, and a body defining a lumen extending therebetween. The lumen is in fluid communication with a medical device at the proximal end. The lumen is also in fluid communication with a collection container at the distal end. The drainage member body is attached to the collection container. The body includes a valve configured to control fluid flow between the drainage member and the collection container.
Claims19
A medical device assembly comprising a drainage member having a proximal end, a distal end, and a body defining a lumen extending therebetween, wherein said lumen includes a distal opening at the distal end of the drainage member and the lumen is in fluid communication with a medical device at the proximal end of the drainage member and a collection container at the distal end of the drainage member, wherein the drainage member body:
- is attached to an inner surface of the collection container;
- and
- includes a valve configured to control fluid flow between the drainage member and the collection container, wherein the valve comprises a cover member covering the distal opening and a cover support member received within a recess of the drainage member, the cover member including a varying thickness.
A drainage member for a medical device assembly comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and a body defining a lumen extending therebetween, wherein the lumen includes a distal opening at the distal end of the drainage member and the lumen is configured to be in fluid communication with a medical device at the proximal end of the drainage member and is configured to be in fluid communication with a collection container at the distal end of the drainage member, wherein the drainage member body:
- is configured to attach to an inner surface of the collection container;
- and
- includes a valve configured to control fluid flow between the drainage member and the collection container, wherein the valve comprises a cover member covering the distal opening and a cover support member received within a recess of the drainage member, the cover member including a varying thickness.
