Healthcare technicians need to physically restrain patients for extended periods to prevent them from removing critical medical devices, which is exhausting and prevents basic needs like drinking water.
LineGuard IV
Nurses lack a safe, efficient method to reuse IV secondary lines between incompatible medications without risking contamination.
