<p>A hemostasis valve for sealing around elongate medical instruments inserted into the body. The valve has an elastomeric valve body adapted to be received with a rigid introducer housing and seal thereagainst. The valve body has a distal end and a proximal end, and a cavity opening at the proximal end to receive the medical instruments. A pair of duckbill walls extends in the distal direction and converges and meets at a slit opening. The slit opening has an H-shape that effectively seals around multiple sizes of medical instruments, from the smallest catheter to the largest bore catheters. The duckbill walls may be planar or curvilinear, and may be reinforced with one or more ribs extending outward therefrom.</p> |
