DEVICE FOR REDUCING MICROBIAL CONTAMINATION A medical device (100) for use in connection with a connector of an indwelling line for cleansing a surface of a septum of the connector is provided. The medical device 5 (100) includes a housing (110) including a proximal portion (112) defining a cavity containing a quantity of microbial reducing agent, a distal portion (114) defining a cavity for selective coupling with the connector (16) of the indwelling line, and a partition separating the proximal (1 12a) and distal cavities (1 14a), wherein the proximal (I 12a) and distal cavities (1 14a) are in fluid communication with one another; and a deformable io member overlying an end of the proximal portion (112) for maintaining the microbial reducing agent within the proximal cavity (I 12a) thereof. The microbial reducing agent being dispensable into the distal cavity (I 14a), at least when the medical device (100) is connected to the connector (10) of the indwelling line, to awash a surface of the connector (10) of the indwelling line and reduce microbes present thereon. 112a114a "MRA" 11 /-4a/-114b 1124a 12)2 ~-12 114c 124a 11F2b 116 124 14 116a 120 126 112a 12 116 14 12 114a 114 114 10o "MRA" 41 14a 120 18 1 24a 120a 126 122 116a 124 |
