HotDog Patient Warming System
The
key to effective warming is surface area.
HotDog is
the
only patient warming technology that can warm from above
and below the patient at the same time, which offers
tremendous versatility and effectiveness. A recent study found
HotDog warmed significantly faster than forced-air warming
when all other relevant variables were held constant in a
prospective, randomized controlled trial. Over-the-body
blankets and underbody mattresses are warmed by a flexible,
semi-conductive polymer fabric that directs heat toward the
patient, not wastefully around the room, which is a proven
vector of contamination. Not only is HotDog effective and air-
free; it is reusable, making it easier on your budget and the
environment. Eliminate costly disposables and allow all
patients to receive the benefits of normothermia.
