Analysis of the reasons for removal of vascular ports in patients treated in chemotherapy and gynecological oncology departments – preliminary investigations
Despite their limitations in oncological treatment, ports have no alternatives, and thus further technological progress is essential. Education of staff working with patients with implants allows an increase in the benefits of therapy in the long run and significantly improves the quality of life of oncological patients. The education of patients and their families, as well as frequent re-training of staff, provides greater opportunities to minimize the side effects of therapy and reduce the number of adverse reactions related to infections.
