Cancer drug pump. This device is designed to deliver measured doses of cancer drugs to a patient while still being portable. The pump is carried in a bag (not seen),which is strapped around the waist. The tube running from the pump goes under the patient's clothing to a suitable vein,allowing the drugs to be pumped into the patient's bloodstream. This allows the patient to carry out normal day-to-day activities while being treated for their cancer,as opposed to having intensive chemotherapy sessions at a hospital.
