The connector of an indwelling needle is called the "needle connector" or "indwelling needle connector".

Indwelling needle fittings are designed to be leak-proof to ensure a stable connection and prevent fluid leakage during infusion. In addition, indwelling catheters also come with a flip or swivel locking mechanism. An indwelling catheter (indwellingcatheter) is a medical device that is commonly used to temporarily or permanently leave a urinary catheter, intravenous access, or other fluid access in the body. It is made of a flexible tubular material that can be inserted into the body to deliver medications, drain urine, or perform other medical procedures.
