<p>A safety device for use with a catheter to which a discharge conduit is connected includes a flexible, pleated segment that permits the discharge conduit to be temporarily axially elongated if sudden or excessive force is applied thereto. The pleated segment also permits limited torsional movement of the conduit. The safety device preferably includes a rotatable, fluid-tight connector that permits relative rotation between those elements to which it is connected.</p> |
