A luer port alert device and method of alerting a care provider to a condition of a patient therewith prior to administering fluid treatment to the patient is provided. The luer port alert device (10) includes an arcuate body (16) tp be placed on a luer port (12) having a through passage extending along a central axis between opposite ends (22, 24). A bridge member (30) extends from the body over one of the ends generally along the central axis to at least partially obstruct access to the through passage. The bridge member is selectively and resiliently moveable radially outwardly the central axis under an externally applied force to allow full, unobstructed access to the through passage, when desired, and returns to its relaxed position generally along the central axis upon removing the externally applied force. The bridge member has at least one leg (46, 48) and a bridge portion (50), said at least one leg extending axially from said body in generally parallel relation with said central axis to said bridge portion and said bridge portion extending laterally from said at least one leg over said through opening. The bridge portion being labeled with information on the patients condition.Linvention concerne un dispositif dalerte pour orifice luer et une méthode permettant davertir un membre du personnel soignant dune pathologie du patient avant de lui administrer une solution de traitement. Le dispositif dalerte pour orifice luer (10) comprend un corps arqué (16) à placer sur un orifice luer (12) comportant un passage sétendant le long dun axe central entre des extrémités opposées (22, 24). Un élément de liaison (30) part du corps et recouvre lune des extrémités généralement le long de laxe central de manière à au moins partiellement obstruer laccès au passage. Lélément de liaison peut se déplacer de manière sélective et de manière souple radialement vers lextérieur de laxe central sous laction dune force externe pour permettre un accès complet et non obstrué au pass
