Closed Systems for Oncology
Chemotherapy drugs containing antineoplastic agents have been associated with several health risks ranging from skin irritation to more severe risks like pregnancy complications and birth defects, and have even been linked to some forms of cancer.
Oncology professionals, therefore, face a danger as vapors, aerosols, and droplets of hazardous chemotherapy drugs can easily escape standard syringes and contaminate the workplace. And, due to the adhesive properties in chemotherapy drugs, these contaminants can actually leave the designated workspace. Not only are the oncology professionals put at risk, but also other hospital staff, and even patients and their families.
With closed CHEMOFlow® devices operators and patients are safe, the risk of contamination is minimized. Moreover, the specific use for taxanes and chemo drugs has been tested and the material of devices and tubes is compatible with its use.
