Abstract: An intravenous delivery system for delivering a volume of solution to a patient intravenously from a solution container positioned above the patient and coupled to the patient via a length of narrow flexible tube. The system comprises frame means to support the solution container above the solution delivery outlet, means to raise the container as it empties to ensure a constant head of pressure, pointer displaceable about a calibrated scale on the frame means, the pointer being adapted to move with the container to provide visual indication of the volume of solution deliver to the patient, cut-off means to prevent flow of solution through the tube and means to trigger the cut-off means in response to a preselected position of the pointer.
