The s fluid lock port (100) includes a housing (102) having a distal and a proximal end (104, 106); a resilient conduit (120) supported within the housing, wherein the conduit (120) defines a lumen (122) therethrough; and at least one biasing member (130) supported in the housing (102) and being operatively associatable with the resilient conduit. The at least one biasing member (130) has a first condition restrained from deforming the 1o resilient conduit and a second condition operatively engaged with the resilient conduit to at least partially occlude the lumen of the resilient conduit.1/5 <;100. 110130 112 108 102 122 104 106120 140"------- -------- "X 11 24= FIG. 1 <;100 102 104 130 120 122 FIG. 2
