Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A fluid transfer device for use with a peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) including an introducer body having a proximal end and a distal end, and a flow tube at least partially housed within the introducer body, wherein the flow tube is configured to be selectively extendable from the introducer body. The fluid transfer device also includes a lever lock coupled to the distal end of the introducer body, wherein the lever lock includes a lumen configured to allow the flow tube to pass therethrough, and wherein an effective length of the lever lock relative to the distal end of the introducer body is adjustable in order to accommodate use of the fluid transfer device with indwelling catheters of the PIVC having various lengths.
