Port Needles

Port Needles

A special huber/non-coring/whin/port needle must be used when accessing a port. A normal needle will literally “core out” a little of the silicone of the dome, leading to possible leakage of medication. Barring any complications, the Polyperf  or PPS Flow needle can remain in situ for 7 days.
