A high pressure medical connector tubing assembly includes a high pressure medical connector tubing assembly, including a tube element having opposed tube ends and a passageway, an end element overmolded to at least one of the opposed tube ends, the end element having an annular end portion having a preselected length, and a connector element having a connector hub defining a receiving cavity. The preselected length of the annular end portion may be used to pre-control the axial location of stress concentration in the connector hub. A method of forming the high pressure medical connector tubing assembly includes providing a tube element comprising opposed tube ends and a passageway therethrough, overmolding an end element onto at least one of the opposed tube ends, providing a connector element comprising a connector hub defining a receiving cavity, and securing the tube end with the overmolded end element in the receiving cavity.

1. A high pressure medical connector tubing assembly, comprising: a tube element comprising opposed tube ends and a passageway therethrough;an end element overmolded to at least one of the opposed tube ends to provide an overmolded end element, the end element comprising an annular end portion having a preselected axial length, the annular end portion defining an entranceway; anda connector element comprising a connector hub defining a receiving cavity, the tube end with the overmolded end element fixedly secured in the receiving cavity, the connector element comprising a connector port defining a fluid passageway;wherein an axial location of radial stress concentration in the connector hub is preselected by changing the axial length of the annular end portion in the receiving cavity; andwherein the entranceway and the fluid passageway have a common internal diameter and abut to define a smooth transition seam between the fluid passageway and the entranceway to maintain laminar flow conditions across the smooth transition seam. 2. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 1, wherein the tube end with the overmolded end element is fixedly secured in the receiving cavity by solvent bonding. 3. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 1, wherein the end element is formed with at least one external indicator to visibly identify depth of insertion of the tube end with the overmolded end element in the receiving cavity. 4. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 1, wherein the tube element comprises braided tubing formed of an inner braid encapsulated by a flexible polymer layer. 5. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 1, wherein the entranceway tapers downstream of the smooth transition seam to the passageway in the tube element. 6. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 5, wherein the entranceway tapers at an angle of approximately between 0° and 80°. 7. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 1, wherein an end element is overmolded to each of the opposed tube ends of the tube element. 8. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 7, wherein the connector element comprises a pair of connector elements, and the opposed tube ends each having an overmolded end element are fixedly secured, respectively, in the receiving cavities of the pair of connector elements. 9. The high pressure medical connector tubing assembly of claim 7, wherein the tube element comprises braided tubing formed of an inner braid encapsulated by a flexible polymer layer. 10. A method of forming a high pressure medical connector tubing assembly, comprising: providing a tube element comprising opposed tube ends and a passageway therethrough;overmolding an end element onto at least one of the opposed tube ends to provide an overmolded end element, the end element comprising an annular end portion having a preselected axial length, the annular end portion defining an entranceway;providing a connector element comprising a connector hub defining a receiving cavity, the connector element comprising a connector port defining a fluid passageway; andsecuring the tube end with the overmolded end element in the receiving cavity;wherein an axial location of radial stress concentration in the connector hub is preselected by changing the axial length of the annular end portion in the receiving cavity; andwherein the entranceway and the fluid passageway have a common internal diameter and abut to define a smooth transition seam between the fluid passageway and the entranceway to maintain laminar flow conditions across the smooth transition seam. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the securing the tube end with the overmolded end element in the receiving cavity comprises solvent bonding the tube end with the overmolded end element in the receiving cavity. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the end element is formed with at least one external indicator to visibly identify depth of insertion of the tube end with the overmolded end element in the receiving cavity. 13. The method of claim 10, wherein the tube element comprises braided tubing formed of an inner braid encapsulated by a flexible polymer layer. 14. The method of claim 10, wherein the entranceway tapers downstream of the smooth transition seam to the passageway in the tube element. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the entranceway tapers at an angle of approximately between 0° and 80°. 16. The method of claim 10, further comprising overmolding an end element to each of the opposed tube ends of the tube element. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the opposed tube ends each having an overmolded end element are fixedly secured, respectively, in the receiving cavities of a pair of connector elements. 18. The method of claim 16, wherein the tube element comprises braided tubing formed of an inner braid encapsulated by a flexible polymer layer.
