A medical connector for connecting medical tubing to a catheter includes a
connector body and a height compensating foot. The connector body has a
catheter leg adapted to connect to the catheter, a medical tubing leg
adapted to connect to the medical tubing, and an angular bend
intermediate the legs. The height compensating foot is attached to the
catheter leg and extends outwardly therefrom at an angle to prevent the
connector from rocking and tubing from overhanging a patient's knuckles
when connected to the catheter inserted in a patient.
