摘要：
A stopper is provided for preventing blockage of a cannula of an intravenous catheter in-between uses including a hub having a connector for securing to the catheter, and a stylet having a length and a shape configured to fill a lumen of the cannula, where the hub is configured to place the stylet within the lumen of the cannula, and where the stylet is configured to prevent blood from clotting within the lumen of the cannula when inserted in a patient between uses. In some implementations, the stopper can have a movable stylet. In an example, the stylet can have a variable stiffness configured to aid in moving and prevent blockage of the lumen by kinking of the cannula.
