Calima™* Convective Forced Air Patient Warming System

OVERVIEW Temperature management is an important component of perioperative patient safety and comfort. Maintaining perioperative normothermia is important to ensure that a patient does not experience inadvertent hypothermia and its consequences, such as increased blood loss, cardiac abnormalities, prolonged recovery, and increased risk for wound infection.¹ Unwarmed patients can lose up to 1.6°C during the first hour under general anaesthesia, as they are unable to regulate their temperature.² Forced air warming has proven to be one of the most effective methods of warming a patient to maintain normothermic temperatures and prevent the complications associated with hypothermia⁴,⁵. Now maintaining normothermia has never been so easy with the Calima™* patient warming system and its comprehensive portfolio of overbody and underbody warming blankets — including the WarmTouch™ blankets. With the Calima™ warming system, normothermic delivery (37°C) occurs in less than 1 minute!⁴,⁶ It is suitable for multiple medical settings, including the operating room (OR), post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU), and intensive care unit (ICU). Features The Calima™* convective forced-air patient warming unit can be applied during surgery when your patient is under general anaesthesia.
