A Blood Warmer is a medical device designed to safely heat blood IV fluids or other solutions to a temperature close to body temperature 37C before infusion into a patient It is widely used in surgery trauma care ICU and emergency settings to prevent hypothermia caused by administering cold fluids or blood transfusions
Key Features of Blood Warmer
Precise Temperature Control
Maintains fluid temperature between 35C and 42C to ensure safe infusion
Digital temperature monitoring prevents overheating and thermal injury
Rapid Heating Technology
Provides quick warming to handle emergency transfusions or highflow infusions
Preheats within seconds to handle large volumes efficiently
Multiple Heating Modes
Supports IV fluids plasma blood and crystalloid solutions for versatile applications
Compatible with continuous flow systems for mass transfusion protocols
Portability and Compact Design
Lightweight and portable for use in ambulances field hospitals and disaster relief operations
Models with battery backups ensure uninterrupted function during transport
Compatibility with Standard IV Lines and Tubing
Works with standard infusion sets making it easy to integrate into existing setups
Some models include disposable warming sleeves or inline heaters for infection control
Overheat Protection and Safety Alarms
Builtin alarms for temperature deviations flow blockages or device malfunction
Auto shutoff feature ensures safety during extended use
Continuous Flow Warming
Allows highflow infusion rates of up to 500 mLmin suitable for trauma situations requiring largevolume resuscitation
UserFriendly Interface
Touchscreen or LED display for temperature adjustments and status monitoring
Preset temperature settings simplify operation during emergencies
Applications of Blood Warmer
Emergency and Trauma Care
Rapidly warms blood and IV fluids for shock resuscitation and hypovolemic patients
Used in ambulances and field operations for prehospital care
Surgical Procedures
Prevents hypothermia during major surgeries requiring continuous transfusions or fluid replacement
ICU and Critical Care Units
Ensures normothermia in patients requiring longterm IV therapy
Suitable for burn patients and sepsis management where temperature regulation is critical
Dialysis and Chemotherapy Centers
Provides warmed fluids for dialysis and chemotherapy infusion therapy improving patient comfort
Neonatal and Pediatric Care
Warms nutritional fluids and blood products for infants and pediatric patients with sensitive temperature needs
Advantages of Blood Warmers
Prevents Hypothermia Reduces the risk of coldinduced complications such as coagulopathy cardiac arrhythmias and shock
Fast and Accurate Heating Ensures immediate response in emergency situations without waiting for manual warming methods
Versatility in Fluid Types Suitable for blood IV fluids medications and plasma solutions
Portable and BatteryOperated Models Ensures flexibility in ambulatory and field settings
Ease of Use Preconfigured temperature settings simplify operation for both trained and emergency personnel
Infection Control Features Disposable components ensure hygienic fluid warming and reduce crosscontamination risks
