Intera 3000 Hepatic Artery Infusion (HAI) Pump

The Intera 3000 HAI Pump is the only FDA-approved implantable pump for HAI therapy

The Intera 3000 HAI Pump contains a drug reservoir which is attached to a catheter (a long tube) that connects to the hepatic artery – the blood vessel that supplies blood to tumors in the liver. The pump is made of titanium and has smooth contours. It’s about three inches in diameter, one inch thick, and weighs five ounces.

The pump is surgically implanted just below the skin in the abdomen. Implantation can be performed as a standalone surgery or during other scheduled surgeries such as the removal of existing tumors.

Patient Pump

Once the pump is implanted, body heat enables the delivery of medicine. There are no batteries, motors or gears that can stall or fail. The pump does not run out of power because it is powered by body heat. The medication flows from the pump’s inner chamber, through the catheter, into the hepatic artery, and is delivered directly to the liver.
