ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a portable intravenous pole for use in combination with a surface on which an emergency victim is lying and the weight of the emergency victim's body to support an intravenous delivery system including a container in which an intravenous solution is disposed. The portable intravenous pole includes a plurality of segments each of which is an elongated member having a first end and a second end. Each segment has at its first end a hook with a locking slot disposed adjacent thereto and at its second end a pivot bar. The pivot bar is rotatively coupled to the hook of another segment and is slidably inserted into the locking slot in order to fixedly, but detachably, couple together the segments. The portable intravenous pole also includes a base which is disposed perpendicular and fixedly coupled to one of the segments at its first end adjacent to the bottom of the portable intravenous pole. The base has a pair of hooks each of which has a locking slot disposed adjacent thereto. The portable intravenous pole further includes a pair of legs. Each leg is a flat elongated member having a pivot bar at one end. The pivot bar of each leg is rotatively coupled to one of the hooks of the base and is slidably inserted into one of the locking slots in order to fixedly, but detachably, couple the leg to the base. The pair of legs supports the base and the mechanically coupled segments in a substantially vertical position so that the intravenous delivery system is disposed above the body of the emergency victim.
