ABSTRACT:
A flow control device with an inlet for fluid and a normally open slotted movable member sealing the inlet and closing the slot. The unsealing of the inlet and the opening of the slot permits the passage of fluid therethrough. The movable member extends by a channel, which can be open or closed, between the inlet and an outlet and has a portion which is expandable laterally. A member external to the flow control device, such as the tip of a Luer taper, can activate the movable member by depressing it to open the slot and allow the flow of fluid.
