Recommended irrigation volume for an intravenous port: Ex vivo simulation study.
BACKGROUND:An intravenous port, which differs from a central venous catheter, has an injection chamber at the end of the catheter. This structural difference causes the irrigation flow pattern to be quite different from that of the central venous catheter. Furthermore, the intraluminal volume differ...
