AbstractTreatment of cancer pain with opioids through an epidural catheter, with a portable infuser has been recorded in 20 patients retrospective. In general there was a good acceptance of the treatment, which often could liberate the patients from close contacts to the pain clinic. There were not recorded adverse effects in relation to the infuser treatment. One patient had systemic adverse effects because of a very high daily opioid dose. The Pharmacia Deltec infuser employed has proven very secure and easy to handle.
