Pump support 116 has a horizontal upper member 118, a horizontal lower member 120, and vertically extending, spaced-apart poles 122 interconnecting upper and lower members 118, 120. IV bag support 114 is mounted to upper member 118. IV bags 110 hang from bag support 114, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3-13. Each pump 112, 113 is mounted to one of poles 122 by a coupler 124, as shown in FIGS. 6-9. First column 46 has a first lifter for raising and lowering ventilation unit 24 from and to the room floor. The first lifter has a first driver (not shown) mounted within housing 54. The first lifter also has a pair of vertically extending arms 90 (see FIGS. 3-4) operable to extend and retract from housing 54 in response to operation of the first driver. The first driver is in turn operable by an input control 86 (see FIGS. 1-9) which is attached to the housing 54. Control 86 may include a single control button, several control buttons, a toggle switch, or the like for controlling operation of the first driver and thus extension and retraction of arms 90. The first driver includes, for example, a first electric motor coupled to one or more of lines 56 to receive electrical power therefrom. The first driver further includes first screw drive mechanisms coupled to the first motor and arms 90 to extend and retract arms 90. A lower portion of each arm 90 is configured to be attached to upper portion 78 of frame 68 to suspend cart 59 from first column 46. Upper portion 78 is formed to include a pair of arm-receiving receptacles 92 (see FIGS. 5-6). Arms 90 are configured to attach to and detach from upper portion 78 of unit 24 via suitable coupling mechanisms. Lower ends of arms 90 are received in receptacles 92 when unit 24 is coupled to first column 46. Housing 54 matches the contour of upper portion 78 and a bottom surface of housing 54 overlies a top surface of upper portion 78 when the arms 90 suspend the cart 59 above the floor and adjacent to first column 46. In some embodiments, there is only one arm 90 which is centrally located relative to housing 54 and is attachable to upper portion 78 of frame 100 via a plate or other suitable coupling mechanisms. After unit 24 is detached from carrier 26, unit 24 can be attached to bed 14 for movement therewith, as shown, for example, in FIGS. 5-17, or unit 24 can be transported individually, if desired. If unit 24 is to be transported with bed 14, a caregiver uses handle 76 to maneuver unit 24 near bed 14 so that a connector such as a link 96 of bed 14 engages, latches onto, or otherwise couples to a post 94 of cart 59. Link 96 is pivotably coupled to a base of bed 14 to extend outwardly therefrom for attachment to post 94. Post 94 is attached to and extends upwardly from lower portion 71. Lower portion 71 has a cavity 148 formed therein to accommodate pivoting of link 96 relative to unit 24. IV unit 28 is stackable on top of ventilation unit 24 for movement of both units 24, 28 together with bed 14 about the hospital. In this way, ventilation equipment 61 and IV equipment 98 remain close to the patient on bed 14 to provide medical services to the patient during transport of the patient throughout the hospital. Thus, a modular transport system 22 is provided when unit 28 is coupled to unit 24. Second column 48 has a second lifter for raising and lowering IV unit 28 off of and onto ventilation unit 24. Similar to the first lifter, the second lifter has a second driver (not shown) mounted within housing 55. The second lifter also has a pair of vertically extending arms 134 (see FIGS. 7-8) operable to extend and retract from housing 55 in response to operation of the driver. The second driver is, in turn, operable by an input control 132 (see FIGS. 1-9) which is attached to housing 55. Control 132 may include a single control button, several control buttons, a toggle switch, or the like for controlling operation of the driver and thus extension and retraction of arms 134. The second driver includes, for example, a second electric motor coupled to one or more of lines 53 to receive electrical power therefrom. The second driver further includes one or more second screw drive mechanisms coupled to the second motor and arms 134 to extend and retract arms 134. A lower portion of each arm 134 is attached to upper member 118 to couple frame 100 to second column 48. Upper member 118 is formed to include a pair of receptacles 136. Arms 134 are configured to attach to and detach from upper member 118 via suitable coupling mechanisms. Lower ends of arms 134 are received in receptacles 136 when unit 28 is coupled to second column 48, as shown in FIG. 7, to raise and lower unit 28. After arms 134 lowers unit 28 onto unit 24, arms 134 can be detached from upper member 118, as shown in FIG. 8, to allow arms 134 to be retracted without unit 28 attached thereto, as shown in FIG. 9. Housing 55 matches the contour of upper member 118 and a bottom surface of housing 55 overlies a top surface of upper member 118 when the arms 134 suspend the frame 100 above the floor and adjacent to second column 48. In some embodiments, there is only one arm 134 which is centrally located relative to housing 55 and is attachable to upper member 118 via a plate or other suitable coupling mechanisms. To stack unit 28 on top of unit 24, carrier 30 is moved to position unit 28 directly above unit 28, as shown in FIG. 6. The caregiver activates control 132 to lower unit 28 onto cart 59. When frame 100 is placed on cart 59, lower member 120 of frame 100 is attached to upper portion 78 of cart 59. The contours of lower member 120 and upper portion 78 match one another when frame 100 is placed on cart 59. Lower member 120 has side connector portions 138 and an intermediate connector portion 140 located between side connector portions 138, as shown in FIGS. 6-9. Intermediate connector portion 140 has a downwardly extending post 142, as shown in FIGS. 1-6. When unit 28 is lowered onto unit 24, portions 138, 140 rest on an upper surface of upper portion 78 and a middle receptacle 144 formed in upper portion 78 receives post 142. Lower member 120 further has receptacles 146 to accommodate outlet hardware and gauges attached to the upper ends of tanks 66. The caregiver then detaches arms 134 from receptacles 136 of upper member 118, as shown in FIG. 8, and activates control 132 to raise arms 134 into housing 55, as shown in FIG. 9. Units 24, 28 thus stacked provide a modular transport system 22 to provide medical service to the patient on bed 14 during transport of the patient. Link 96 is pivotable relative to bed 14 to allow transport system 22 to be positioned at different locations relative to bed 14 to facilitate transport of the patient throughout the hospital. For example, system 22 can be located adjacent a side of bed 14 (see FIGS. 9 and 17), adjacent a corner of bed 14 (see FIGS. 10-13), and adjacent an end of bed 14 (see FIGS. 14-16). Once system 22 is positioned in a desired position relative to bed 14, link 96 can be locked so that system 22 is stationary relative to bed 14. The position of system 22 is adjusted relative to bed 14 when, for example, system 22 and bed 14 are located in a confined area such as an elevator 142, as shown in FIGS. 14-17. During entry of system 22 and bed 14 into elevator 142, system 22 is positioned, for example, at an end of bed 14 when system 22 and bed 14 enter elevator 142, as shown in FIGS. 14-16.
