19 AN INTRAVENOUS TUBING CLAMPING DEVICE ABSTRACT An intravenous tubing clamping device for control- ling fluid flow through compressible tubing. The device includes an elongated member having a proximal end and a distal end and being adapted to receive the tubing. The body member has a generally V-shaped longitudinally- extending groove having an angle of about 60° to 165° defining two supporting surfaces for the tubing. A roller is mounted on the body member for movement longitudinally of the body member to define a clamping area between the roller and the supporting surfaces of the body member which decreases as the roller moves from the proximal end towards the distal end of the body member. Preferably, the clamping area has a general V-shape and an area that varies between a value equal to or greater than the cross- sectional area of the unclamped tubing and a value approxi- mately equal to the area occupied by the collapsed tubing which is approximately equal to twice the nominal wall thickness of the tubing. Also, the roller has a generally V-shaped circumference having an apex angle centrally located on the roller having a value of about 60° to 180°. The size of the clamping area is varied by moving the roller towards the supporting surfaces, by moving the bottom of the V-shaped groove in the body member towards the roller, or by a combination of moving the roller towards the V-shaped groove and moving the base of the V-shaped groove towards the roller.
