Doctors and rescuers in the field are often in unstable environments, without space to hang or hold up IV bags for extended periods of time. Mobile IV Systems (MIVS) developed the concept of administering fluids from an IV bag at the same elevation as the patient using the pressure within a CO2 canister. For this product, a manufacturable CO2 pressure regulator was created to simulate gravitational pull, with a drip cup that permits safe drug delivery in all orientations.

Mobile IV Systems (MIVS) product provides far greater flexibility within unpredictable environments with the manufacturable CO2 pressure regulator and drip cup designs. With this product, a single, inexpensively obtained CO2 canister is capable of delivering approximately 2-3 hours of fluid to a patient at the patient’s own altitude, thus freeing the arm of a rescuer to tend to other urgencies.
