While my husband and I
were at the Oley Foundation Conference in Minneapolis, we found an awesome cart
for HPN (home parenteral nutrition) at Ikea. Similar to a tea cart, the Bygel
utility cart is constructed of plastic and metal, with three levels of storage,
including a tray that is great for holding your cannulas, IV tubing, and swab
sticks. The top surface is a good workspace for prepping HPN. We purchased cups
that attach to the side to hold all of our syringes, heparin, and flushes. Since
it is plastic, it is easy to disinfect with whatever cleaner you prefer. And it
has wheels for ease of transport. At $29.99 it was a worthy find, and a sweet
deal.
