Continuous subcutaneous delivery of medications for home care palliative patients—using an infusion set or a pump
Supportive Care in Cancer, 10/05/09
Menahem S et al. – In a home palliative care setting with a medical staff on call for 24 h, using medications for symptom control can be considered to be infused to a fluid solution bag through an infusion set instead of using a syringe driver or a pump when there is a responsible caregiver to follow up on the fluid. Subcutaneous constant drug delivery through a pump is more accurate.
