The IV Stand (Model 1657) is the most advanced and stable choice for modern hospitals, combining robust engineering with multi-functionality. This stand features a heavy-duty stainless steel frame to provide secure support for intravenous fluids, with an integrated accessory basket and a support handle, making it a complete mobile therapeutic unit that assists patients in moving safely and comfortably.
The importance of this enhanced IV Stand lies in providing total safety for both the patient and the medical staff. The heavy stainless steel base prevents tipping even when loaded with heavy fluid bags or Infusion Pumps. Furthermore, the support handle turns it into a walking aid for recovering patients, reducing nursing effort and promoting patient independence within the medical facility.
Hang the fluid bags on the top hooks and adjust the desired height using the ergonomic handle, securing it firmly.
Place any additional supplies or patient files in the designated basket to keep the treatment area organized.
Guide the patient to use the support handle when walking, ensuring the brakes are released before moving.
When the patient is stationary, engage the wheel brakes to prevent accidental movement that could pull the IV lines or cause injury.
After use, wipe the pole and handle with an alcohol-based disinfectant to ensure the surfaces frequently touched by the patient are sterilized.
Can Infusion Pumps be mounted on this stand?
Yes, the 25mm pole diameter is designed to securely support the mounting of medical infusion pumps without compromising the balance of the five-leg base.
What is the advantage of wheels with brakes?
The brakes ensure the stand remains perfectly stationary beside the patient’s bed, preventing slips or sudden movements that could tug on IV lines or lead to falls.
Is the accessory basket detachable?
Yes, the basket can be detached or its height adjusted on the pole to facilitate cleaning or to meet the specific storage requirements of each medical case.
