A valve positioned in the impermeable layer facilitates filling the device with fluid, as well as connection of the device to external fluid sources such as an intravenous bag, pump, or other external fluid delivery system. The diffusion layer may comprise a semi-permeable membrane which controls the rate of fluid flow from the device to the patient's skin.

A transportable intravenous stand for carrying medical fluids, such as blood plasma or saline solutions, so as to allow the fluids to be gravity fed into a patient. This invention comprises a base, a collapsible support member, and a hanger member to allow for hanging fluid-dispensing containers. The base being collapsible and support member telescoping so as to provide for a compact, easily transportable stand for use in the field when providing medical treatment to a patient.

A liquid measurement device having a containment structure, a sensor, and an interface device, having particular applicability to the collection and administration of electrically conductive fluids. The device is configured to house and monitor the height of a fluid. The containment structure has at least one variable cross-section portion. The sensor has two cooperating variable resistance sections that account for the variable cross-section of the containment structure. The electrical resistance of the sensor changes as the fluid height changes and shorts out a portion of the sensor. The sensor may include an electrically conductive ink that is printed on the interior of the containment structure. The sensor receives an electrical measurement signal and modifies the signal in a predetermined manner to reflect the amount of fluid within the containment structure. The device is useful in measuring the amount of fluid in urine collection bags and intravenous bags.

The present invention relates to articles of manufacture and methods for co-administration of antibodies and/or antibody-like molecules, and further concerns methods for intravenous administration of more than one antibody and/or antibody-like molecule to a subject in need from a stable mixture contained in the same article of manufacture, such as an intravenous infusion bag (IV bag).

A cover for intravenous fluid bags is used to disguise the IV bag thereby reducing the level of patient fear and intimidation created by medical equipment and environments. The decorative cover can be shaped to portray a familiar object (animal, plant, vehicle), or be provided with a blank surface that can accommodate colorful stickers, drawings or removable interchangeable objects selected by the patient. The cover is comprised of an opaque front surface and an attachment means for attaching the cover to the IV bag or the IV stand. The cover is easily attached or removed by medical staff and does not obstruct the normal monitoring of fluid progress from the bag.

A support frame for supporting an intravenous bag and associated equipment, comprises a main pole adapted to be secured to a structure so as to be self-standing. A pivotable pole is adapted to support equipment associated with an intravenous bag. A pivot joint is provided between the main pole and the pivotable pole such that the pivotable pole rotates about the main pole. A rack is supported by the pivotable pole, the rack being adapted to support an intravenous bag.

An air liftable emergency evacuation frame is for transporting an injured person to an immediate medical aid. The evacuation frame comprises an elongated support structure that includes a support member assembly having a longitudinally extending pair of opposing poles. The support member assembly is configured to interconnect the pair of opposing poles to define a recessed area to place the injured person. A plurality of supporting means attached at a lower portion of the pair of opposing poles is adaptable to hold the elongated support structure when the emergency evacuation frame is placed on a surface with the injured person. At least one hole is employed at an upper portion of at least one of the pair of opposing poles to hold a detachable intravenous stand. The detachable intravenous stand allows a rescuer to hang an intravenous bag for providing a better flow of fluids.

An intravenous bag for use with an intravenous line includes a fluid cavity, a flange at least partially surrounding the fluid cavity, and one or more identification tags removably coupled to the flange without compromising the integrity of the fluid cavity. At least one of the identification tags is associated with contents of the fluid cavity and is attachable to the intravenous line for associating the intravenous line with the contents of the fluid cavity.

A heating cabinet for IV bags provides a uniform thermal field promoted by circulated heated air passing through air permeable shelves. IV bag temperature is modeled through a knowledge of the uniform thermal field temperature and arrival time of the IV bag eliminating the need for separate temperature sensors and control loops. Bag status may be signaled through modulated light distinguishable by individuals with limited color sensitivity. Signals are associated with particular IV bags by projecting the signal light into the bag itself.
