Double-lumen branched catheter with perforations for intraperitoneal drug delivery Ghent University
The aim of this project is to develop a novel, multi-arm catheter for intraperitoneal drug delivery to treat patients with peritoneal metastases. This innovated design would allow:
Better spatial drug distribution (increases the surface exposure); Prolonged, low dose (metronomic) chemotherapy administration; To avoid intraperitoneal instillation of large volumes, thus avoiding side effects (pain, bloating) and reduce ...
