Product Description

The i-Port Advance injection port is a subcutaneous
injection port, which combines the injection port with an aid
for insertion. The injection port is an integrated part of the
inserter. Two injection port models are available: a 6 mm or
9 mm cannula length. The i-Port Advance injection port is a
sterile unit, delivered assembled for one time, single-patient
use.
Contraindications
• Do not use the same i-Port Advance injection port for
longer than 72 hours.
Do not attempt to reapply the i-Port Advance injection
•
port after use.
• The i-Port Advance injection port is neither intended nor
indicated for use with blood or blood products.
• Do not use the i-Port Advance injection port for any
purpose other than the indications specified by your
healthcare professional.
• Do not use needles with a gauge smaller than 28 or
greater than 32. Doing so may damage the septum and
may cause incorrect medication delivery.
• Do not use a needle longer than 5/16 in. (8 mm) when
injecting into the i-Port Advance injection port. Longer
needles may damage the device causing unnecessary
punctures of the skin, or tearing or puncturing of the soft
cannula, which may result in unpredictable medication
delivery.
• Do not use a needle shorter than 3/16 in. (5 mm) when
injecting into the i-Port Advance injection port. Shorter
needles may not pass through the port septum, which
may prevent the medication from properly entering the
body.
