<p>A cannula support assembly (10) comprising a hub subassembly (38), which supports a cannula (18), and a cover subassembly (46), which attaches to the subassembly (38) to sealingly enclose the cannula (18) prior to use and which can be easily removed from and subsequently reattached to the hub subassembly (38), if desired. Each subassembly (38, 46) is itself preferably fabricated from one or more individually extruded component parts which can be assembled together. The resulting cannula support assembly (10) can be attached to flexible tubing (16) and is adaptable to diverse uses, such as a hub (38) and cover (46) for a phlebotomy needle (18) or an inline sampling needle (20).</p> |
