August 1, 2008, Newsletter Issue #167: Your new Pole-ish Friend

Tip of the Week

Manoeuvering around with your new I.V. (īpole-ishī) friend and hand (catheter) bag is a challenge. Most I.V. poles have a hook about a foot from the floor to hang the catheter bag and a loop of the connecting tubing. Use it. This will free one hand to help īsplintī your incision and/or use the support bars available in the washrooms or along your walkways. Use the other to push the pole. Donīt use it for balance, though.
