Abstract
A rotor for medical flow-regulating devices is described. The rotor comprises a central body and a margin extending from the central body. The margin comprises at least one actionable section that is movable from a rest position to a stretched position with respect to the central body upon application of a force and is configured to resiliently return to the rest position upon removal of the force. A medical flow-regulating device comprising the rotor is also described. A system comprising the medical flow-regulating device and a hand-held activation device is also described. A method of manufacturing a rotor is also described.
