A hitching post for wandering ophthalmoscopes and otoscopes.

- Abstract
The article provides information on a solution made at a hospital in West Virginia to make it easy for pediatricians to find ophthalmoscopes and otoscopes in a busy pediatric unit. Carrying an otoscope-ophthalmoscope set around is cumbersome and units purchased for common use usually get lost. A wall-mounted unit is not practical so what they did at the pediatric unit is to mount several otoscope-ophthalmoscope units on sturdy intravenous poles which can be wheeled to the patient's room and plugged in.
