Features

An estimated 3-6% of ports placed will develop a port-related infection, impacting a cancer patient’s already challenging
treatment.1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Port-related infections may be due to the initial access or in-dwell of an infusion set in the patient’s port.


Port Access Checklist

Port Access Related Implications

For the patient:

  • Port removal
  • Chemotherapy/treatment interruption
  • Hospital in-patient stay
  • Secondary complications from infection
  • Placement of a 2nd device that may not
    offer the benefits of a port

For the facility:

  • Port removal
  • Potential hospital stay
  • Additional procedures and devices
  • Less or lack of reimbursement due to
    recent CMS changes regarding central
    line infections

Proper Port-Access Technique Matters

Nearly 80% of Oncology Nurses surveyed by Bard cite poor sterile technique, site prep or access procedures as the likely cause for port access related infections.†
