Blanket and Fluid Warmers
Physicians, hospitals and spas store linens and blankets in a warming cabinet (or blanket warmer) not only for patient comfort, but also to reduce risk of hypothermia after a procedure.
The Association of periOperative Registered Nurses provides recommended guidelines and procedures for blanket warmer use, including:
- cabinet temperatures must be checked at regular intervals and temperatures documented
- fluids and solutions should be labelled and dated
- rotate solutions on a first in/first out basis
- IV bags and solution bottles should not be used as patient warming device
Medical Device Depot carries blanket and fluid warmers from all major manufacturers, including FutureMed, Novum Medical, PureTherm, and Whitehall.
