Connection Systems and Methods Thereof

Connection systems and methods establish safe, routine, functional connections between sterile single patient-use ("SPU") medical devices and multiple patient-use ("MPU") medical devices. For example, a connection system can include a male connector associated with an SPU medical device and a female connector associated with an MTV medical device. The male connector can include a flexible member therearound but proximal of a plug of the male connector. The female connector can include a rigid member around an opening of a receptacle of the female connector. The flexible member can conform to the rigid member with a procedural barrier therebetween when the plug of the male connector is inserted into the receptacle of the female connector. Upon insertion of the plug of the male connector into the receptacle of the female connector, one or more functional connections can be established across the procedural barrier between the SPU and MPU medical devices.
