A therapeutic pouch is provided. The therapeutic pouch defines a cavity for slidably receiving intravenous therapy equipment, such as an IV bag or other fluid dispenser. A front portion of the therapeutic pouch provides a comforting presentation for the patient, while the rear portion of the therapeutic pouch provides a visibility pouch for securing the IV bag and allowing a healthcare provider visibility of the administration of the fluids retained by the IV bag. The visibility pouch may provide an upper opening and an opposing lower opening, both communicating with the cavity for enabling the IV bag to protrude therefrom and access to IV tubing and ports, respectively. An upper portion of the therapeutic pouch provides a hanging loop for working in unison with the IV bag hole for enabling support from an IV stand or the like.

An intravenous (IV) fluid bag hanger is described for use in an ambulance or other emergency vehicle. A handle is configured to pivot or rotate between storage and deployed positions. The fluid bag hanger includes a double-sided carabiner. The double-sided carabiner includes a first holding region and a second holding region to hold one or more intravenous fluid bags. The double-sided carabiner forms a hub between the first holding region and the second holding region. An axle of the handle rotates in the hub.

A protection apparatus for use with a continuous infusion fluid source and a peripheral fluid line is provided. The peripheral fluid line comprises an internal portion positioned within a vein located in a first appendage of a patient and an external lumen portion positioned on the exterior of the first appendage. The external lumen portion is configured to interface with a continuous infusion fluid source. The protection apparatus comprises a tubular sleeve of a first length configured to concentrically enclose the first appendage and the external lumen portion of the peripheral fluid line. The tubular sleeve may comprise a pouch portion located a distal end of the tubular sleeve, the pouch portion defining a volume configured to contain and secure the continuous infusion fluid source. The tubular sleeve may comprise a lumen window configured to enable physical and/or visual access to the external lumen portion of the peripheral fluid line.

Devices are provided that include a faceplate for a medical device. In embodiments, an identifier chip adapted to be affixed to an exterior portion of a faceplate provides a unique identifier for the faceplate. Accordingly, the identifier chip enables tracking and monitoring of an associated medical device. And, in embodiments, the faceplate includes a visual communication alert indicator to enable the faceplate to provide visual cues a user. As such, the status of the medical device and the faceplate can be easily communicated to the user. Methods to use the faceplate are also provided.

A medical fluid pump has a housing, a front lid pivotably hinged to the housing, and a carrying handle. The carrying handle, which may have a bow-shaped design, is pivotably hinged to two opposing side faces of the housing. The carrying handle is hinged to the housing such that a handle portion of the carrying handle lies, in a swiveled-out state, in a direction of gravity substantially over a center of gravity of the fluid pump.

A supporting or holding device for the position-safe holding of one or more medical fluid pumps during operation. The supporting or holding device has a basic body and a plurality of vertically spaced trays that project from a front side of the basic body. Each vertically spaced tray is adapted to receive a medical fluid pump. The supporting or holding device includes, at an uppermost end, an intelligent cover for the centralized representation of alarm(s) of the one or more medical fluid pumps.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a transfusion guiding robot and a guiding method for guiding a movement of a transfused person. The transfusion guiding robot comprises a controller, a moving portion and a fixing portion. The controller is configured to receive and process instruction information, and control the transfusion guiding robot according to the instruction information; the moving portion is configured to move according to a command from the controller; and the fixing portion is configured to fix a container, a height of the fixing portion being adjustable.

A protective mechanism for use when gripping a medical device to a rack is provided. A related system and method are also provided. The protective mechanism includes a connector, an actuation member configured to have a first end portion and a second end portion. The cover member is configured to interact with the actuation member so as to pivot to uncover the connector when the actuation member pivots in a first direction and to pivot to cover the connector when the actuation member pivots in a second direction.

A medical device attachment system including a mounting system having a receptacle for receiving a hook attached to a medical device. The receptacle includes a rear wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a notch formed by the walls for closely receiving the hook. A plate mount forms a front wall of the receptacle and an appropriate attachment component is secured to the mounting plate for removably securing the mounting system to a desired support structure for the medical device.

A device for supporting IV tubing along a distance and suspending the tubing above the floor includes a support arm and a cradle. The cradle is positioned along a shaft of the support and is configured to receive a length of IV tubing therein.
