Additional information

Medtronic i-Port Advance Injection Ports

The Medtronic i-Port Advance Injection Port is a discreet subcutaneous injection port designed for people who require multiple daily injections using a compatible pen or syringe. Commonly used for diabetic insulin injections, i-Port Advance helps reduce the need to puncture the skin for every individual dose by allowing medication to be injected through the port once it has been applied. It is suitable for both adults and children, and may also be used with other physician-prescribed subcutaneous medications where appropriate clinical guidance has been provided.

Each i-Port Advance includes a built-in inserter for simple application. Once applied, only a soft flexible cannula remains under the skin, while the external port sits securely on the skin with an adhesive pad. Medication is injected through the port using a compatible pen needle or syringe needle, rather than directly through the skin each time. No medication is stored inside the device. Each port can be worn for up to 72 hours or used for up to 75 injections, whichever comes first, helping make repeated injection routines more manageable.

Available options include: 6mm or 9mm cannula sizes, with either a tester box of 2 ports or a full box of 6 ports. The smaller tester box is useful for first-time users, suitability checks or short-term assessment, while the full box of 6 provides a more practical supply for ongoing use.
