Managing Risk Getinge Surgical Workflows supports crisis-driven, high-volume patient care Getinge Surgical Workflows Spring 2020 Getinge Blanket and Fluid Warming Cabinets Highly adaptable Getinge Blanket and Fluid Warming Cabinets help prevent hypothermia in temporary medical facilities As COVID-19 patient volume increases exponentially in many areas of the country, caregivers will continue to be challenged to maintain normothermia among a growing number of affected individuals being treated in temporary and improvised treatment centers. Normothermia reduces the risk for cardiac events and respiratory distress while allowing patients to better metabolize drugs. IV fluids are often used to prevent hypothermia, combat dehydration and deliver medication while warm blankets help prevent hypothermia and increase patient comfort. High-capacity combination blanket/fluid warming cabinets accommodate up to 40 blankets and 30 one-liter bottles (or 24 one-liter bags). A choice of stackable blanket warming and fluid warming units increase capacity with- out requiring additional floor space. Larger units feature heavy-duty casters that make it possible to easily transport units throughout a facility without the use of a forklift as the floor-plan and volume-related needs dictate. ivNow modular fluid warmers are designed to warm injection and irrigation solutions in 30 minutes or less at point-of-use. These units do not need expensive in-line and infusion warming systems that require costly disposables and lengthy set-up time. ivNow offers the capacity to provide up to 147 liters of warmed fluid during a 24-hour period. Units can be supplied in one-, two- or three-pod configurations that are easily mounted on walls, booms and equip- ment poles or placed on countertops.
