Feel and See the NEW Standard of Care* The PowerPort* device combines reliable venous access with the unique ability for power-injected Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography (CECT) scans. Power-injected CECT scans produce superior images to help better manage patient care. Such scans are often used to track tumor markers or perform pulmonary embolism studies.
The PowerPort* device provides the benefit of power injection (when used with the PowerLoc* safety infusion set). The PowerPort* device is radiopaque and allows patients to receive IV therapies and CECT scans without the need for repeated needlesticks. Power-injected CECT scans produce superior images to help better manage patient care. Such scans are often used to track tumor markers or perform pulmonary embolism studies. The palpation points and unique triangular shape of PowerPort* implanted ports make them easily distinguishable from older non-power ports. PowerPort* devices offers easy, flexible placement and access.
