Abstract

A pre-slit injection site includes a housing with a flow path therethrough. A first end of the housing carries a pre-slit septum. A blunt cannula, usable with the injection site, carries a locking member. When the pre-slit injection site slidably receives the blunt cannula the locking member latches to the injection site forming a mechanically coupled unit.
