ONS/ASCO Guideline on the Management of Antineoplastic Extravasation
Read the guideline
Abstract
Extravasation is an uncommon but high-risk adverse event that occurs when an agent with the potential to cause tissue damage leaks out of the intended administration space into the surrounding area. This guideline presents evidence-based side effect management recommendations to support interprofessional teams in decision-making to minimize severity or progression of extravasation injury from antineoplastic treatment in individuals with cancer.
