A bag carrier for continuous intravenous hyperalimentation.
We designed a new bag-carrier device system for continuous intravenous hyperalimentation. The patient carries it on his shoulder and can both walk up and down stairs and go out. The use of this device is simple and easy, and was found to increase the patient's opportunity to engage in physical activity.
