We have a patient we just admitted to Home Care who reports that she has a Smart Port. I've been unable to find any information about this specific name of a port. Is it a brand name or something totally different? Is it a power port? Who is the manufacturer? What are any procedural changes from a regular port? Any help is greatly apreciated.
Thanks!
It is a power injectable port with vortex technology. It is made by AngioDynamics. You access and flush this port like any other port. There is more information on the AngioDynamics website.
