| Abstrakt: | Administration of chemotherapy and other medications with an infusor can fa cilitate home care of the pediatric oncology patient. An infusor that is reliable, lightweight, disposable, and delivers an infusion at a constant rate is described in two case studies. Use of this device has allowed children to receive most of their chemotherapy as outpatients thus decreasing the cost of care and facili tating the child's return to more normal daily activities.
