A hemostasis valve may be used with a catheter such as an aspiration catheter. The hemostasis valve comprises a support, and at least a first lever, pivotably carried with respect to the support. A collapsible tubular sidewall defining a valve lumen is carried by the support. A filament is formed into a loop around the tubular sidewall, the filament having at least a first tail portion extending away from the loop to the first lever. A first spring may be configured to move the first lever in a direction that pulls the first tail portion away from the tubular sidewall, reducing the diameter of the valve lumen in response to reducing the diameter of the loop. A second tail portion may extend away from the loop to a second lever. Each tail portion may be attached to its respective lever, or may be slidably advanceable around a fulcrum on the lever and attached with respect to the support.

A medical connector can include a body having a fluid path with an inlet port, an outlet port, a luer portion, and a post extending through a fluid path. An arm having a latch member is coupled to the body to engage a ridge or thread on an exterior surface of a reciprocal connector. The arm may also include an extension. When the connector is in an open position, the latch member restricts retraction of the reciprocal connector from the outlet port. A seal is coupled to the body and includes a flap extending across the outlet port or a bellows to compress along an axis. In a closed position, the post restricts flow through the luer portion. In an open position, the post permits flow through the luer portion.

A catheter assembly is provided that includes a catheter, a catheter adapter, a near port connector connected to the catheter adapter port, and an extension set coupled to the near port connector and including a far port connector. The near port connector includes a distal port, a proximal port, and a side port, with the extension set connected to the side port and a split-septum valve provided in the proximal port. The near port connector may be configured to withstand a proximally-directed fluid backpressure of greater than 30 psi to prevent fluid leaks during a fluid injection through the far port connector, or may have a fluid path shut-off attached thereto to selectively close a fluid path through the near port connector and the split-septum valve, to prevent fluid leaks out from the near port connector during a fluid injection through the far port connector.

A catheter assembly is provided with a catheter, a catheter hub, and a valve body (medical valve) provided in the catheter hub. The valve body includes a hollow main body provided with a distal end surface and a fixing portion for fixing the valve body to the catheter hub. At least a part of an outer peripheral surface and at least a part of an inner peripheral surface of the main body are inclined with respect to a central axis of the valve body. The main body of the valve body includes a distal end slit provided on the distal end surface and a side slit provided on the outer peripheral surface of the main body and continuously extending from the distal end slit.

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.

A respiratory treatment device having an inlet configured to receive exhaled air into the device, an outlet configured to permit exhaled air to exit the device, a valve moveable in response to a threshold exhalation pressure at the inlet between a closed position where the flow of air from the inlet to the outlet is restricted, and an open exhalation position where the flow of air from the inlet to the outlet is less restricted, and a valve brace configured to support the valve, wherein a position of the valve brace relative to the valve is selectively adjustable to increase or decrease the threshold exhalation pressure.

Catheter valve, including a valve housing defining a fluid channel, wherein the housing includes an asymmetric valve leaflet that is pivotal between a first position for allowing fluid flow through the fluid channel and a second position for closing the fluid channel, wherein the housing and valve leaflet are connected via a snap-fit connection. Further, there is provided a method for assembly of the catheter valve, including: providing the catheter housing; providing the valve leaflet; and snapping the valve leaflet into the housing.
