AADCO MEDICAL, INC. · Model NF-550
MRI-SAFE WHEEL CHAIR IV POLE
Intended use: A freestanding or equipment-attached metal rod with two or more hooked bars extending horizontally from its top from which various fluid delivery devices (bags or bottles) can be suspended for the administration of intravenous (IV) fluids/medication to the patient. It is used during infusion therapy for intravenous administration of fluids/solutions or blood transfusions. Infusion pumps and/or syringe pumps can also be attached to it. Also called an IV pole or drip pole, it can be a fixed or side-swinging, adjustable, vertical pole attached to a bed, operating table, wheelchair, or more commonly, an independent floor-standing IV pole for bedside use; some have wheels for patient mobility.
Key tips
- ·Never bypass a radiation interlock to "just get the image" - this is one of the few true zero-tolerance rules in BMET work.
- ·Trend image-quality phantom results over time - drift shows up before an outright failure does.
- ·Portable/mobile units take real physical abuse from transport - check wheel locks and cable strain reliefs more often than fixed units.
