ABSTRACT:
A device for use in intravenous feeding comprises a reservoir of an intravenous fluid and an intravenous tube connected at one end to the reservoir, the tube being provided on an inner surface with a layer of a water-soluble biocompatible material visible through a wall of the tube. In use, an intravenous fluid is flushed through the tube or tube assembly until the water-soluble biocompatible layer dissolves and is no longer visible. Upon the dissolution of that layer into the intravenous fluid flowing through the tube assembly, a free end of the tube assembly is connected to a patient, while the tube assembly is maintained filled with the intravenous fluid.
