Key Features:
Pediatric-Sized: This gown is specifically designed for children over 40 inches (102 cm) tall, ensuring an appropriate fit for smaller patients.
Patient-Adjustable Warming: When connected to a compatible Bair Hugger warming unit, the gown allows patients to have control over their own thermal comfort, which can help ease anxiety.
Dual-Port System: The gown has multiple hose ports. One is for prewarming and comfort warming (typically with a Bair Hugger 800 Series warming unit), while the other is for clinical warming during surgery (with a Bair Hugger 500 or 700 Series warming unit). This eliminates the need to switch out blankets and gowns.
Full Coverage and Modesty: The gown has a wrap-around, full-back design with side ties to ensure secure and complete coverage for the child, which is important for maintaining their dignity.
Refastenable Strips: It features refastenable strips on the arms and chest, allowing for quick and easy access to the patient for clinical tasks without having to remove the entire gown.
Soft Material: The gown is made from a soft, comfortable material that is gentle on a child's skin, which contributes to a more positive patient experience.
Disposable: It is a single-use product, intended for one patient only, which helps to maintain infection control standards.
Uses:
Preoperative Warming: The gown is used to prewarm pediatric patients before they enter the operating room. This can help prevent the redistribution temperature drop caused by anesthesia and provide comforting warmth, which is especially important for children who may be anxious about surgery.
Intraoperative Warming: During surgical procedures, the gown can be connected to a warming unit to maintain the child's core body temperature. This helps to prevent the negative consequences of hypothermia, such as surgical site infections and increased blood loss.
Postoperative Recovery: In the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), the gown continues to provide therapeutic warming, aiding in a more comfortable and stable recovery for the child.
Pediatric Clinical Settings: It is a valuable tool in a variety of pediatric clinical settings, including pre-op, operating rooms, PACU, and emergency departments.
