Chemotherapy and Cancer

Disposable infusion pump is a small, lightweight, portable infusion device that through the epidural and intravenous infusion can be used for surgery, chemotherapy, painless labor analgesia and other sustained, slow medical infusion.

An implantable port, also known as a portacath or subcutaneous port, is a device inserted under the skin that connects to a vein. It consists of a thin tube (catheter) attached to a small chamber with a self-sealing silicone membrane. Typically placed about an inch below the collarbone on the upper right chest, it allows for chemotherapy, blood transfusions, antibiotics, and IV fluids without repeated needle sticks
