Description

Key Features:

  • Full Body Coverage: This blanket is designed to cover the patient from head to toe, providing comprehensive warming.

  • Forced-Air Warming: It connects to a Bair Hugger warming unit that blows warm air through the blanket's perforations, ensuring uniform heat distribution.

  • Postoperative Focus: While it can be used throughout the perioperative journey, sources indicate it is specifically designed for the postoperative application of forced-air warming to surgical patients, particularly in the PACU (Post-Anesthesia Care Unit).

  • Patient-Centric Design: It includes integrated tuck flaps at the shoulders to help maintain the blanket's position on the patient and a foot drape to minimize the risk of thermal injury to the feet.

  • Soft and Safe Materials: The blanket is made from a soft, lightweight, and latex-free nonwoven polypropylene material, which is comfortable for patients and reduces the risk of allergic reactions.

  • Disposable: It is a single-use product, intended for one patient only, which helps to maintain infection control and patient safety.

Uses:

  • Hypothermia Prevention: Its primary use is to maintain a patient's core body temperature within the normal range (normothermia) during and after surgery. This helps reduce the risk of complications such as surgical site infections, cardiac events, and increased blood loss.

  • Postoperative Care: It is particularly well-suited for use in the recovery room to warm patients who have just undergone surgery, aiding in their recovery and comfort.

  • General Clinical Warming: It can be used for any adult patient who needs to be warmed to maintain their body temperature in a medical setting.
