Methods and systems for filling IV bags with therapeutic fluid

A method of using an IV assembly with an electronic system to prime the IV assembly with therapeutic medical fluid for a patient, the method comprising:

• obtaining an IV assembly, the IV assembly comprising:
• an empty IV bag with an outlet on a lower side;
• and
• a patient-administration tubing comprising a closeable male luer connector with a first end and a second end, the first end of the closeable male luer connector being attached in fluid communication with the patient-administration tubing, the closeable male luer connector comprising an open position and a closed position for sealing fluid within the IV assembly,
• wherein the patient-administration tubing is permanently attached in fluid communication with the IV bag;
• attaching the closeable male luer connector to the electronic system;
• priming the IV assembly by pushing fluid through the closeable male luer connector, through the patient-administration tubing, and into the IV bag using the electronic system;
• and
• closing the closeable male luer connector to provide a closed, primed IV assembly that is configured to connect to an access point in an IV tube attached to a patient such that the primed IV assembly is configured to allow the fluid in the primed IV assembly to be conveyed through the patient-administration tubing of the primed IV assembly to the access point without requiring additional priming of at least one of the patient-administration tubing or the closeable male luer connector.
