ABSTRACT:
A touch-contamination protected spike connector is provided for coupling a plastic fluid conduit to a port extending from a medical solution container. The spike defines a longitudinal bore and has an angled tip, and carries a flange which extends outwardly from the spike. A tube surrounds and is concentric with a major portion of the spike, with the tube having a dimension suited for coupling to the port with a snug pressure fit. A spacer is interposed between the spike and the tube. The flange and surrounding tube cooperate to enable the spike to be connected to the port with the chance of bacterial contamination caused by accidental touching of the spike being minimized.
