Chemotherapy in elastomeric pumps

Have a request from our Oncology Clinic to bring in elastomeric pumps for use in delivery of ambulatory chemotherapy infusions (e.g. fluorouracil).

Appreciate if those using these types of devices could provide feedback on any safety issues encountered--or if these have worked well with minimal issues in your facility.

Thanks!
