Etymology
Canulization comes from cannula, a small tube whose name originally meant 'little reed', and the ending -ization, which means 'making' or 'doing'. You can connect cannula to the word canal, which also means a channel or tube, so canulization is the act of putting a small tube into the body to drain fluid or give medicine.
