A sampling port includes a hub having a body that forms a hub chamber for containing a fluid. The hub also has a proximal opening to the hub chamber for receiving a medical implement, and the hub chamber has a valve member that normally closes the opening. The valve member has a valve wall forming a valve interior. The sampling port also has a first and second fluid channel formed by the hub body and in fluid communication with the hub chamber. The first and second channels have radial portions and proximally extending portions with proximally extending longitudinal axes. The proximally extending longitudinal axes form a plane therebetween that diverges from the longitudinal axis of the first fluid channel.
