Motorised Drip Stand

The clinical engineers and technologists of the Medical Engineering section of Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust developed the motorised drip stand, which provides a safe method to elevate drip bags where a high gravity-fed flow rate of fluid delivery is required. It offers an ergonomic loading height which circumvents potential health and safety risks of current model that provide no assistance to theatre staff in raising irrigation bags to the required height. The drip stand has been licensed to T-Med Medical (a group company of Turkington Industries, ) which uses its extensive engineering facilities to provide practical medical solutions.
