Abstract: A device which carries the life supporting devices of a bedridden patient that cooperates with the footboard of the bed in a manner such that the weight of the assemblage is generally centered with respect to a cross section of the footboard so that there is very little twisting movement. The device includes a table-like surface for supporting life support devices. W-shaped flanges which cooperate with the headboard and wheels that allow the entire assembly to be rolled to another location. A first group of brackets hold the I.V. poles when they are in use, and a second group are provided whereby the I.V. poles can be used as handles.
