Zusammenfassung:Provided herein is a system including, in some embodiments, a streamlined port and a port tunneler. The port includes a septum and a stabilizing element. The septum is disposed over a cavity in a bodyof the port, and the septum is configured to accept a needle therethrough. The stabilizing element is configured to stabilize the port in vivo and maintain needle access to the septum. The port tunneler includes an adapter and a release mechanism. The adapter is in a distal end portion of the port tunneler, and the adapter is configured to securely hold the port while subcutaneously tunneling theport from an incision site to an implantation site for the port. The release mechanism is configured to release the port from the adapter at the implantation site for the port. 本文提供了一种系统,在一些实施例中,包括流线型输液港和输液港隧道器。输液港包括穿刺膜和稳定元件。穿刺膜设置在输液港的主体内的空腔上方,并且穿刺膜构造成接受针穿过其中。稳定元件构造成在体内稳定输液港并维持通向穿刺膜的进针通路。输液港隧道器包括接头和释放机构。接头位于输液港隧道器的远端部分中,并且接头构造成在将输液港从切口部位皮下穿隧到输液港的植入部位时稳固地保持输液港。释放机构构造成在输液港的植入部位处将输液港从接头释放。
