Question

A patient using an infusion device (electric), is it permitted to carry it (due to muktze) when wanting to go out with the patient for a walk?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

It is permitted to carry the infusion device for the needs of the patient, as it is a tool whose primary use is prohibited, but it can be moved for the sake of its place.
