Hangers designed for the overhead suspension of intravenous (IV) administration fluid containers (e.g., plastic bags, glass bottles). These hangers are typically metal structures with one or more hooks (e.g., ram\'s horn) appropriate to suspend IV containers. IV fluid container hangers are used mounted on IV poles, directly on the wall, or fixed to the ceiling either directly or by a track-and-carrier system; the hangers are also used to hang fluid containers during other patient procedures (e.g., irrigation, enteral feeding).
