iV-GO® A Game Changer for IV Treatment

Approximately 90% of all hospitalized patients worldwide receive IV treatment. Most often, the treatment is provided from an IV bag suspended from a traditional IV pole, unnecessarily restricting the patient’s mobility. The majority of modern IV treatment devices, such as infusion pumps, still require IV poles to function and are additionally restricted by battery life. Furthermore, IV poles are easily identifiable from afar, contributing immensely to patient stigmatization.

iV-GO® is a purely mechanical reusable infusion pump that uses a novel system to generate the force needed to empty the content of the IV bags. iV-GO® mimics the pressure of gravity-fed bags on IV poles through an entirely mechanical process without needing electricity or battery power. It can be hung on a wheelchair, carried by hand or as a backpack during treatment without hindering the patient. iV-GO® removes dependence on gravity-based devices and enables an incredibly liberating way to provide IV treatment to patients.

During treatment with iV-GO, patients enjoy enhanced dignity and the empowerment of independence and mobility. Patients who are usually chained to an IV pole can now be more mobile and enjoy the sensation of moving around freely without compromising the vital care they receive. Furthermore, patient mobility and increased physical activity can positively contribute towards faster patient rehabilitation. Last but not least, faster rehabilitation or even treatment at home can significantly decrease the burden on the healthcare sector and reduce the risk of cross-contamination at the hospitals.

iV-GO® differentiates itself from existing mobile IV solutions on the market today since it is the only solution that is 100% mechanical. Since it does not need a power source, iV-GO® is easy for personnel to use and maintain. Additionally, it can be provided with a hard case backpack for additional protection, providing a safe and discrete way of receiving the treatment while on the go. Due to being fully mechanical and not reliant on the gravity to provide the pressure, iV-GO® can be used in any environment. In addition to the incredibly liberating way to give IV treatment in hospitals and at home, iV-GO® can be life-saving in emergency and rescue scenarios. iV-GO® does not require a battery and can give IV treatment in many different positions, thereby enabling it to provide life-saving treatment to injured people in any environment.
