US Army Intravenous Set - Vietnam War






DETAILS

Intravenous Set / Disposable Type Field
Fenwal Laboratories Inc 
Stock Number : 3-426-850. 


SUMMARY

Fenwal made these sets during the Korean War and Vietnam War.

US Army Medical Dept switched to a hypenated stock number mid to late 1945 and the FSN was introduced in 1949. Given the stock number does not have 000 as the last three digits and recognizing that some manufacturing contracts would have existed without the FSN, my opinion is those particular units could be 1946-early 1950 but definitely not beyond that. Definitely something that could have been used during the Korean War and early Vietnam as well.
