While there are studies that support possible benefits of such services, I understand that clinical results may vary. Services offered by IVNation are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent medical diseases and are not an alternative to medical evaluation and treatment by a physician. Rather, the services provided by IVNation may provide patient with symptomatic improvement of certain conditions and/or help them achieve a certain goal with regard to their overall health and wellness.

 

Medical Disclosure. I have disclosed all medical history requested by IVNation, including, but not limited to, any chronic medical diseases, surgical history, current medications and supplements that I am taking and any known allergies to drugs or substances.

Risks. Many services offered by IVNation that I may choose to receive involve the administration of fluids and other medications and substances directly into a vein through an IV (intravenous) catheter placed by a licensed health professional. Though uncommon, I do acknowledge understanding that this procedure carries inherent risks, which include, but are not limited to:

 

  1. Bruising, bleeding, pain, swelling, infection and/or scarring at the injection site.
  2. Inflammation, clotting and/or injury of the vein utilized.
  3. Misplacement of the IV catheter in the body into sites including arteries and other extravascular tissues which could result in injury, extravasation of fluid and medication and other tissue damage.

In the event of any complications following receiving services from IVNation, I will call or proceed to the nearest emergency room. I will also provide information to IVNation as to the complications and the follow up care I have received..

 

Payment And Insurance. I am responsible for payment in full of all services that I choose and receive from IVNation prior to initiation of said services.

Exclusion From Services.

I acknowledge that fees for any such services that are begun but not completed will not be reimbursed under these circumstances and I will be responsible for payment in full.  

 

Termination Of Services. I understand that I may elect to terminate services provided by IVNation at any time before or during their administration but that I will still be responsible for payment in full for said services. IVNation and its staff reserve the right to terminate service(s) at any point, with or without cause and without prior notice if deemed appropriate in their professional judgment.

 

Attestation. By signing below, I acknowledge that I have received this Consent and reviewed it in its entirety.
