1. A medical convenience kit for measuring, filling and dispensing medication and flush solutions to patients through connections to patient lines and catheters while improving safety and efficacy of such procedures by requiring fewer post-sterilization makes and breaks than like procedures performed with conventional components, by facilitating dispensing of flush solutions, by providing for flushing of patient line and catheter connecting fittings before breaking such connections, by providing resealable, tamper evident kit packaging which permits sealed transport of kit parts after initial opening and parts use, by providing a two syringe assembly which is operable by a single hand and by providing for selectively dispensing from each of the two syringes while obstructing flow from the other syringe, said kit comprising:

  • a resealable, tamper evident bag for containing and transporting items used to perform a predetermined medical procedure;

    items of the kit comprising;

    at least one sealed pouch wherein each part disposed therein is sterilized before being displaced into said bag, at least one sealed pouch containing a plurality of individual parts interconnected and unitized to preclude further post-sterilization assembly;

    said plurality of parts comprising a medical dose syringe, a stopcock affixed to the syringe to selectively obstruct and permit fluid flow from the dose syringe and to an extension set by which a pre-filled flush syringe is affixed and aligned for use with the medical dose syringe, said stopcock having a free fitting whereby the unitized parts are connected to a medical connector for a desired predetermined purpose; and
