    Abstract: Provided herein is a catheter system including a catheter and a catheter hub, with the catheter hub further including a hub body having a cavity formed therein extending between a hub distal end and a hub proximal end, a hub port positioned at the hub proximal end, and a wedge positioned within the cavity adjacent the hub distal end, the wedge coupled to a proximal end of the catheter. A connector is coupled to the catheter hub and includes a proximal coupler, a distal coupler configured to mate with the hub port, and a primary lumen extending between the distal and proximal couplers that is in fluid communication with a lumen of the catheter. The distal coupler includes a collar portion configured to mate with the hub port and an extension tip extending distally out past the collar portion and into the cavity, to the wedge of the catheter hub.
