Patent attributes
A medication delivery system delivers medication to a patient and is suitable for sterilization by a sterilization fluid. The system includes a base and a reservoir disposed about the base for storing the medication. A pump for delivering the medication to the patient is supported by the base. A port extends from the base. The port enables fluids to flow into, within, and from the medication delivery system. The Port comprises an elongated housing having a Proximate end and a distal end with a fluid chamber defined therebetween. A plurality of fluid connectors extend from the elongated housing. A plunger is disposed in the fluid chamber and defines an internal fluid bore therethrough with the internal fluid bore being in selective fluid communication with the fluid connectors as the plunger moves between an off-position, a fill-position for filling the reservoir, and a fluid delivery-position for delivering the fluid to the patient.
