Question

The needleless injection port is where medication can be injected directly into the IV tubing without having to access the patient's vein. This is an easy and quick method of administering pain medication intravenously. The hub connector is where the IV tubing connects to the catheter, the flow regulator controls the rate of IV flow, and the spike is used to puncture the bag of IV fluid. None of these are necessary for administering medication directly into the IV line.
