Use of portacaths
Has anyone had their portachaths used for anything other than delivery of chemo, blood or iv fluids, say for giving IV contrast for scans, or for the routine taking of blood? Just curious. Everyone always looks at me askance when I try to suggest using it outside the oncology unit!!! All sorts of excuses are usually given, but I suspect the main reason is lack of familiarity. Any experience here?
