What are other people using for IV poles in multi-place chambers since there are no FDA approved IV poles anymore? Any model or brand recommendations? We also need to replace our vital sign monitors, and they must be safe to place in an HBO multi-place chamber.

Adam,

Thank you for reaching out with your questions regarding IV poles and vital sign monitors in multi-place chambers and recognizing the importance of finding safe and reliable equipment, especially in the context of the current lack of FDA-approved IV poles. Are you seeking specific functionalities or features in the IV poles and monitors? Additionally, if you have any preferred brands or models that you've considered, sharing those could help us narrow down potential recommendations. We have contacted our multiplace chamber resources and industry contacts for their insights on this matter, and we're compiling their feedback. This will allow us to provide you with the most accurate and relevant information regarding models or brands others use successfully. Looking forward to your clarification so we can assist you further.

Thanks, Jeff

Mr. Mize,

Below is the information provided by our safety officer:

For proper monitoring of ICU patients the patient monitor would need to have 5 lead ECG, pulse ox, a cat 5 port (or whatever hook up our new system uses), NIBP and Art line capabilities.

Our IV Pumps currently use the cassette (same as IP) which would prevent us from swapping tubing out each time. Triples would be nice and to have ml/hr accurate to the tenths.

Thank you and please let me know if you need anything else.

Thank you,

Adam
