Abstract: Disclosed is a fully portable medical I.V. equipment stand/pole (12). This invention is a triple sectioned telescoping mast assembly (13),(14),(15), with each section able to be locked into the other by means of an internal rotary cam-clutch (16),(17),(18),(19), which maintains a desired height of I.V. fluid or feeding solution above the patient regardless if the patient is ambulatory or in bed. Opening or closing of the I.V. equipment stand/pole is accomplished with a single movement of a control handle(24) which controls the mast assembly support legs(23). Fluids and feeding solutions are hung from the hanger rod assembly (30,),(31),(32). A control knob (32) frees or restricts horizontal movement of the hanger rods (30), and the circular rotation of the entire assembly (30),(31),(32).
