hello all,
We were checking the technical specs for multiple lumen extensions that we are planning to introduce to our institution. We noticed that most short lumens extensions (Dead space around 0.5 ml) that are available in the market are not PVC free.
My question: is it necessary to have PVC-free short lumen extensions while running chemo and medications that are not compatible with PVC?
Thank you,
Rebecca
