Abstract
A support device to support a catheter assembly may include a platform, which may include an upper surface and a bottom surface. The support device may include an extension element coupled to the upper surface of the platform. The extension element may include a distal end, which may include a first connector configured to couple to the catheter assembly, and a proximal end, which may include a second connector. The extension element may include a valve that may be movable between a first position and a second position. In response to the valve being moved to the first position, a fluid pathway extending through the cannula and the extension element may be open and straight. In response to the valve being moved to the second position, the fluid pathway may be closed. The support device may include a cannula, which may be swaged within the extension element.
