A valve assembly (10, 10") is provided for reverse-flow prevention, i.e, anti-reflux flow control for associated components, such as for nutritional administration to patients. The valve assembly includes a valve body (12) including a main body portion (14) and a connector portion (16, 16', 16"). A valve member (24) is positioned with the valve body (12), and can be operated between dosed and opened orientations. A reciprocable valve actuating member (46, 46', 46") is positioned within the valve body (12), and is engageable with the valve member (24) so that movement of the actuating member (46, 46', 46") between the first and second positions moves the valve member (24) between its closed and opened orientations. |
