FAQs:

1. What is a PowerPort Implanted Port and how does it work?
The PowerPort is an implanted port device placed under the skin. It provides long-term central venous access for treatments such as chemotherapy, IV medications, or frequent blood draws. It is accessed with a special non-coring needle through the skin into the port reservoir, which leads into a catheter that terminates in a central vein.

2. What materials are used in the Implanted Bard Powerport?
This specific model is made of ChronoFlex and is silicone-filled. These materials help with durability, biocompatibility, reduced risk of allergic reaction, and ease of insertion/use. Silicone filling helps maintain the integrity of the port’s internal chamber and reduces infection risk.
