Zusammenfassung:A valve assembly that includes an inlet that is in fluid communication with an enclosure of a medical device, an outlet that is in fluid communication with a delivery conduit of the medical device, and a body having a channel that is in fluid communication with a source of fluid. The body is configured to move relative to the inlet and outlet to selectively fluidly couple the channel with the enclosure and delivery conduit. In a first position of the body, the channel is misaligned with at least one of the inlet or the outlet, such that the delivery conduit is not in fluid communication with at least one of the enclosure or the source of fluid. In a second position of the body, the channel is aligned with the inlet and outlet such that the delivery conduit is in fluid communication with the enclosure and the source of fluid.
