Do you use tubing with no ports for controlled substance infusions?

Our hospital is currently discussing moving to using tubing with no ports for controlled substance infusions. We are already doing this with PCAs - but this would be for infusions (like Ketamine) that are not administered using a PCA pump/module. Thanks for any feedback!
