Structures (frames) designed for managing patient care equipment and devices, such as monitors, oxygen tanks, and intravenous bags, and primarily used to facilitate patient ambulation. They have handles for patients to hold while pushing the stand during ambulation. These stands typically consist of an open or enclosed structure made of metal, plastic, or a combination of these materials and may include adjustable platforms to hold equipment. These stands can also have equipment management items, including oxygen tank holders, intravenous pump and patient monitor mounts, electrical power strips, and tubing and cord clips and hooks, The structure is mounted on casters that are usually an integral part of the stand, and they can sometimes be collapsible.
