Zusammenfassung:A method of making a transparent tubing is disclosed. The method comprises selecting a transparent material; forming the transparent material into an elongated tubing having a fluid pathway and a longitudinal axis therethrough for delivering a first medium having a first index of refraction n1, the elongated tubing including at least one visual marker; and, integrating at least one lens in the elongated tubing, the at least one lens disposed opposite from the at least one visual marker, the lens configured to direct light from the at least one visual marker for detecting a presence or an absence of a second medium in the fluid pathway, the second medium having a second index of refraction n2.
