a channel configured to receive a first volume of fluid from the patient via the first port;
a valve in contact with a valve seat in communication with the channel; and
a seal,
the valve in an open state and the seal configured to allow the first volume of fluid to flow from the first port and toward the valve,
the valve configured to transition to a closed state in response to an equalization of pressure between an inner volume of the fluid transfer device and a portion of the patient to which the first port is fluidically coupled,
the valve in the closed state configured to sequester at least a portion of the first volume of fluid and to allow a second volume of fluid to flow into a fluid flow path that bypasses the channel and the first volume of fluid sequestered therein.
