STICKLESS CATHETER WITH INTERCONNECTING NOSE ABSTRACT A catheter device is described with a safety needle guard that covers and protects the needle after use of the device. The device includes a semi-tubular needle housing containing a flash chamber with a hollow needle extending from the distal end of the flash chamber. A tubular needle guard concentrically fits and slides within the needle housing. The needle guard has a longitudinal slot through which the mounting base of the flash chamber passes as the guard slides within the housing. The top of the semi-tubular housing is open so that a user may access the top of the tubular needle guard with a finger to urge the needle guard to an extended position from the distal end of the housing and in a surrounding position about the needle. The proximal end or hose of the needle guard detaches for the needle housing and has a luer fitting for an infusion set. This end fits with an interference into the catheter hub assembly.
