Abstract:
Systems and methods for assembling an illuminated infusion cannula involving an optical fiber support assembly with an optical fiber support tube and a positioning insert that couples within a cannula and that can position an optical fiber in the tip of the cannula while supporting substantially laminar and minimally-restricted fluid flow through the cannula.

Claim (Index 18):
The method of assembling an illuminated infusion cannula of  claim 17 , wherein the positioning insert is configured to tightly fit within the flared proximal body of the cannula and maintain substantial centration of the distal fiber tip of the optical fiber, wherein the positioning insert in configured with two sets of arms protruding from the positioning insert, the two sets of arms each configured to contact an inner surface of the flared proximal body of the cannula, wherein each of the two set of arms contain three arms. wherein the two sets of arms have respective attachment points on opposing ends of the axial length of the positioning insert, and wherein the two sets of arms extend away from the respective attachment points and towards the opposing side of the axial length of the positioning insert, wherein the two sets of arms are interleaved.
