A gastrostomy tube set includes a delivery tube assembly having a tube for placement in a stomach and a supply tube assembly. The delivery tube includes a valve assembly including an outwardly protruding housing presenting an infusion port and a circumferentially extending flange that protrudes radially outwardly. The supply tube has a distal end including a connector having a male element and a side wall with a lug protruding radially inwardly. The connector couples to valve assembly by orienting the connector with the lug displaced circumferentially from the flange, inserting the male element into the infusion port to shift the valve open, and rotating the connector about the longitudinal axis of the male element so that the lug engages the flange to prevent the connector from being pulled axially from the delivery tube assembly. |
