Abstract:
A ported catheter adapter and septum actuator having various features to prevent displacement and dislodging of the septum actuator when accessing the patient's vasculature via the inserted infusion device. In particular, the systems and methods of the present invention provide an intravenous infusion device incorporating a septum actuator with a retention tab that interacts with a retention ring that is incorporated into the valve of a side port. This interaction retains the septum actuator within the lumen of the catheter adapter, thereby allowing for subsequent access to the patient's vasculature.

Claim (Index 2):
The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the valve comprises a flexible tube having an outer diameter that is approximately the same size as an inner diameter of the lumen, whereby the valve is retained within the lumen by an interference fit.
