Abstract

A blood sampling device having two or more elastomeric one-way valves in parallel configuration. The valves prevent backflow towards the patient, but do not significantly decrease the blood flow from the patient. The valves may be arranged side-by-side within the device, or may alternatively be located one distally from the other.
