Description

Key Features:

  • Forced-Air Warming: Like other Bair Hugger blankets, it connects to a warming unit that blows warm air through the blanket's perforations, ensuring uniform heat distribution to the patient's lower body.

  • Lower Body Coverage: This specific model is designed to cover the patient's lower extremities, from the waist down. This allows easy access to the upper body, head, and chest for surgical interventions.

  • Integrated Foot Drape: A foot drape is included to help minimize the risk of thermal injury to the feet and lower legs while also providing focused warming to that area.

  • Secure and Versatile: A continuous adhesive strip helps secure the blanket to the patient, preventing it from slipping or becoming displaced during a procedure. It can be used for patients in supine (on their back), lateral (on their side), or prone (on their stomach) positions.

  • Patient-Friendly Material: The blanket is made from a soft, comfortable, and lightweight nonwoven polypropylene material that is latex-free, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.

  • Disposable: As a single-use product, it is designed for one patient only, which helps to maintain hygiene and reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

Uses:

  • Preventing and Treating Hypothermia: Its primary use is to maintain a patient's core body temperature during surgical procedures on the upper body. Maintaining normothermia can help reduce the risk of complications such as surgical site infections, cardiac events, and increased blood loss.

  • Various Surgical Procedures: It is commonly used in general surgery, as well as orthopedic, vascular, and urological procedures where the upper body needs to be exposed for the operation.

  • Pre- and Postoperative Care: The blanket is also used in pre-op and recovery rooms to warm patients before and after surgery, which enhances comfort and helps stabilize their body temperature.
