Interventional Department of Henan Cancer Hospital Successfully Carried Out X-ray Guided IV Port Implantation Recently, the Interventional Department of Henan Cancer Hospital successfully implanted an IV port under X-ray guidance for a patient who needs long-term intravenous infusion and completed a 1-month follow-up of safe application. The minimally invasive procedure was performed by Dr. Guo Chenyang, Chief Physician of the Department of Interventional Medicine, and Dr. Zheng Lin, Attending Physician of the Department of Interventional Medicine. An IV port is a central venous channel established by subcutaneous implantation of a port and connection of a catheter, which is a long-term effective infusion route for patients. Compared with the commonly used subclavian vein cannula and PICC cannula, its advantages are: low chance of infection, simple implantation operation; patients can bathe and swim, more beautiful appearance, no need for dressing wrapping, improved quality of life; safe and convenient to use, reduce the extravasation of medication; reduce the number of puncture, protect the blood vessels, especially suitable for children and elderly patients; simple maintenance, maintenance costs are lowered: the use of the term is long, the longest can be up to 38.5 years. It can be used for up to 38.5 years. It can be done under the guidance of X-ray, so that the depth and direction of catheter implantation can be precisely positioned and controlled at any time, which improves the safety of catheterization compared with the conventional blind implantation method. The indications for intravenous infusion port implantation are: the need for long-term or repeated drug administration; the need for blood sampling, blood transfusion and blood products, nutrients, antibiotics infusion; contrast injection; chemotherapy drug infusion. The application of this technology makes patients who need long-term infusion have a more comfortable treatment choice.
