A valve assembly for use with a catheter assembly is provided. The valve assembly includes a valve housing adapted for fluid engagement with a catheter assembly, the valve housing defining a longitudinal axis and having an internal passageway for flow of fluids relative to the catheter assembly, a valve member at least partially disposed within the valve housing and defining a valve passage, the valve member adapted for movement within the valve housing between an open position wherein the valve passage is in general alignment with the internal passageway of the valve housing to permit flow of fluids through the valve housing, and a closed position to substantially occlude the internal passageway of the valve housing, and an actuation mechanism mounted to the valve housing and operatively connected to the valve member, the actuation mechanism selectively movable in a general longitudinal direction to cause corresponding movement of the valve member between the open position and the closed position.
