Abstract

An intravenous line organizer for organizing a plurality of intravenous lines, each being interconnected with a medicament pump is disclosed. A plurality of holders is defined by an elongated tubular wall defining an axis, with adjacent of the tubular walls having parallel axis and being interconnected by a joining member. Each of the tubular walls defines an entry way for receiving an intravenous line used for delivering medicament to a patient. The entry way includes mating appendages for retaining the intravenous line within the holder.

Claims

1. An intravenous line organizer for organizing a plurality of intravenous lines, each being interconnected with a medicament pump, comprising:

a plurality of holders, each holder being defined by an elongated tubular wall defining an axis, with adjacent of said tubular walls having parallel axis and being interconnect with a joining member;

each of said tubular walls defining an entry way for receiving an intravenous line for delivering medicament patient and said entry way having mating appendages for retaining the intravenous line within said holder; and

each of said tubular walls define a plurality of openings spaced there along providing visual access to the intravenous line disposed therein.

2. The line organizer set forth in claim 1, wherein each of said tubular walls are formed from a transparent material providing visual access to the intravenous line disposed therein.

3. The line organizer set forth in claim 1, wherein said line organizer is formed from flexomeric polymers providing flexibility to said tubular walls.

4. The line organizer set forth in claim 1, wherein said line organizer extends substantially along a length of an intravenous line.

5. The line organizer set forth in claim 1, wherein the line organizer is less rigid than the intravenous lines disposed therein.

6. The line organizer set forth in claim 1, wherein each holder flexes with the intravenous line disposed therein.

7. An intravenous line organizer for organizing a plurality of intravenous lines, each being interconnected with a medicament pump, comprising:

a plurality of holders, each holder being defined by an elongated tubular wall defining an axis, with adjacent of said tubular walls having parallel axis and being interconnect with a joining member;

each of said tubular walls defining an entry way for receiving an intravenous line for delivering medicament patient and said entry way having mating appendages for retaining the intravenous line within said holder; and

said joining member disposed between adjacent of said tubular walls is perforated thereby allowing adjacent of said tubular walls to be separated.

8. The line organizer set forth in claim 7, wherein

said plurality of holders is defined by at least four holders.
