More Information
Summary:This disclosure describes embodiments of a kit and its constituent components which together form an apparatus in which fluid communication between a medical device's lumen and the surrounding environment is provided by a conduit cooperatively defined by the medical device and a tubular member into which the device is inserted. The medical device and tubular member are configured to fit together such that an outer surface of the distal region of the medical device cooperates with an inner surface of the tubular member to define the conduit between the side- port of the medical device and a distal end of the tubular member. The conduit is operable to be used for injecting fluid, withdrawing fluid, and measuring pressure, for example. Methods of assembling and using the apparatus are described as well.
