A multi-port connector may be provided, such as a closed intravenous (IV) access device with a Y-port needleless connector. The multi-port connector may include a main housing having a longitudinal axis, a needleless connector disposed along the longitudinal axis, and a Y-shaped port extending from a sidewall of the main housing non-parallel to the longitudinal axis angular extension. The needleless connector may include a compressible sealing member that, when compressed, opens a first fluid passage from the first port through a chamber within the housing and to the output port. The Y-port may be fluidly coupled to the chamber and the output port. |
