Description

Key Features:

  • Forced-Air Warming: The blanket connects to a Bair Hugger warming unit, which blows warm air through the blanket's perforations to provide uniform and consistent warming to the patient.

  • Upper Body Coverage: This specific model is designed to cover the patient's upper torso, arms, neck, and head, making it ideal for procedures where the lower body needs to remain accessible.

  • Versatile Positioning: It can be used with patients in various positions, including supine (on their back), prone (on their stomach), and lithotomy.

  • Convenient Design: The blanket features integrated tie strips and a continuous adhesive strip to help secure it to the patient. It also has two resealable hose ports, providing flexibility in positioning the warming unit.

  • Clear Head Drape: An attached clear head drape and neck vents help to retain warm air around the patient's head while still allowing the clinician to observe the patient.

  • Material: It's made from a soft, lightweight, and latex-free nonwoven polypropylene material for patient comfort and to minimize the risk of allergic reactions.

  • Single-Use: It is a disposable product intended for a single use on one patient to ensure infection control and patient safety.

Uses:

  • Preventing Hypothermia: Its primary use is to maintain a patient's core body temperature (normothermia) during surgical procedures, which helps reduce the risk of complications such as surgical site infections (SSIs), increased blood loss, and cardiac events.

  • Pre- and Postoperative Warming: It can be used before, during, and after surgery to provide therapeutic warming and improve patient comfort.

  • General Surgery: The blanket is commonly used in general surgery, particularly for procedures on the lower half of the body.

  • Clinical Settings: It is a standard piece of equipment in operating rooms, recovery rooms, and other clinical settings where patient temperature management is a concern.
