ABSTRACT:
A tubing connector has first and second tubular legs joined together to provide a continuous fluid pathway therethrough with the fluid pathway having a bend of about 78 to 102 degrees therein. A foreshortened retention tab extends laterally from the tubing connector at about the bend in a direction opposed to the second leg of the tubing connector. A handle extends from the tubing connector at about a right angle to both the first and second legs and the retention tab. The tubing connector may be employed as a component of a fluid delivery set used with a pump for enteral or parenteral feeding of a patient.
