摘要:
An antimicrobial cap and method for inhibiting the growth of microbes and disinfecting a port are disclosed. The antimicrobial cap comprises an assembly that includes an outer cap, an inner component and a pad disposed within the inner component and impregnated with an antimicrobial element in order to disinfect the port. The antimicrobial cap includes flexible attachment features configured to engage a port and a lockout mechanism configured to prevent and disable re-use of the cap, allowing the disinfection of different types of ports and connectors and safe disengagement of a single-use cap.
