A Luer-formatted bag access spike is a small, single-use connector designed to attach intravenous fluid or blood bags to administration sets, syringes, or other fluid pathways. It features a Luer fitting on one end and a hollow spike—either blunt or sharp—on the other, allowing safe and secure access to bag contents for infusion or medication withdrawal.

This device category includes variants with added features such as Y-sites, air filters, retention clamps, or valves, but excludes any integrated tubing. As a single-use device, it is intended for one patient encounter and is regulated accordingly based on its intended use and design, without being classified as a tubing set or vial adaptor.
