    Abstract: A cap configured to engage different types of connectors includes a housing, an absorbent support, and a seal. The housing includes a sidewall extending between a first end and a second end of the housing. The absorbent support is positioned in the housing. The seal is mounted to a portion of the absorbent support and is configured to cover an opening of a first connector or a second connector when one of the first connector or the second connector is inserted into the housing. The cap is configured to be secured to the first connector by an engagement between a portion of an inner surface of the sidewall of the housing and the first connector and to the second connector by an interference engagement between another portion of the inner surface of the sidewall of the housing and an outer surface of the second connector.

    Abstract: A needle cap for a medical syringes facilitates aspiration of medicine into the syringe, through the stopper of a medicine vial, directly through the injection needle of the syringe. A proximal end of the needle cap is coupled to a needle hub of the syringe, with an outer diameter of the syringe needle captured within and in sealing engagement with an internal diameter of a needle seal. An open tip tapered distal end of the needle cap is inserted through the stopper of the medicine vial. Retraction of the syringe plunger aspirates medicine through the open tip of the needle cap, directly through the syringe needle, into the syringe chamber. Upon completion of medicine aspiration into the syringe, the needle cap is removed, and the syringe is ready for injection of medicine to the patient.

    Abstract: An intravascular catheter care device comprising a flush syringe having an integrated disinfecting unit associated therewith and a method for disinfecting an intravascular catheter, wherein the disinfecting unit includes a first disinfecting pad enclosed between a first and second layer of a flexible peel film. The first layer can be removed from the second layer to expose the first disinfecting pad. A second disinfecting pad can be enclosed between either the second layer of the peel film and a third layer of the peel film or between a second layer of the peel film and a cap that can be secured to the connector. The second layer can be removed from the third layer or the cap to expose the second disinfecting pad. The first pad can be used to disinfect the connector of the intravascular catheter prior to flushing and the second pad can be used after flushing.
