Under ERAS concept, body temperature protection measures have been quickly implemented. Currently, there are water blanket, wind blanket, and carbon fiber heating pad/blanket for warming the patient's body surface. Although their heating principles are different, they all transfer heat by contacting body surface. Due to the differences in various surgical positions in clinical operations, in order to achieve continuous heating and insulation of the largest contact area with the body surface, it is necessary to have a variety of sizes of heating pads, heating blankets, and local parts specially designed for different positions. Three-dimensional rewarming equipment combined with heating blanket.
Bairun Medical’s patient warming system, of which its heating principle is that the 24V safety low voltage and the carbon molecules in the carbon fiber cloth produce physical movement between the molecules to produce far-infrared, and provide a continuous and uniform surface to the body surface through thermal radiation and heat transfer. There are 28 specifications of heating pads and 9 specifications of heating blankets, which are combined into 153 model configurations, which can meet the effective surface heating of various surgical positions. For example, it is suitable for heating leg covers for lithotomy position surgery, hole towel heating blanket for abdominal surgery, neck, shoulder and arm heating blanket for lateral position surgery, and so on.
As shown in the figure above, for different surgical types, surgical positions and the patients themselves, select the appropriate combination of heating pads and heating blankets to provide patients with safe and efficient heating protection.
In particular, the introduction of hole-towel heating blankets, heating leg covers and shoulder heating blankets has enriched the application scenarios and complex posture applications of heating blankets, and the concept of three-dimensional rewarming tends to be rationalized. For example, we can choose FD-B-B5-B5 for open-thoracotomy surgery to use the flexibility of the hole-shaped heating blanket (as shown in the picture above) to expose the surgical area, and other heating blankets cover the area to actively keep warm; it can also be applied to keep arms and shoulders warm (pictured above).
In urology, obstetrics, gastrointestinal surgery and other departments, the patient’s back, arms, shoulders, and legs can be warmed and kept warm through the combination of a heating pad and a heating blanket, which greatly reduces the patient’s perioperative period and the occurrence of hypothermia.
The four indicators for temperature management proposed in the 2020 trial version of anesthesia quality control, including intraoperative temperature monitoring rate, intraoperative hypothermia incidence, PACU admission hypothermia incidence, and intraoperative active insulation rate, are directly related to the period of anesthesia. The patient's temperature protection is one of the important outcome indicators reflecting the quality of anesthesia treatment in medical institutions.
To do a good job in the perioperative temperature management, in addition to the perfect intraoperative temperature management, the patient's body temperature protection during the waiting period before the operation, and the continuous heat preservation after the operation are also essential. We have designed special heating blankets for patients' use scenarios before and after surgery to provide patients with comfortable insulation.
Jiangsu Bairun Medical Technology Co., Ltd. aims to optimize the overall program of patient temperature protection and provide perioperative patients with surface heating.
In addition, liquid heating and real-time body temperature monitoring are also indispensable.
