ABSTRACT:
A connector for blood or solution sets (including dialysis solution sets) comprises a tube having an open outer end. The tube carries a side arm which extends radially outwardly from the tube. A cap is connected to the side arm by typically an integral plastic living hinge in a position permitting said cap to pivot between a closed position in which said cap closes the open, outer end, and an open position in which the cap is spaced from the open, outer end. The side arm defines an effectively rigid, fixed configuration to position the hinge and cap at a position permitting a directed path of motion between the open position and the closed position.
