Applications - Emergency & Transport

Coloured blocks

Inditherm have exploited their patented flexible polymer technology to provide a patient warming system that is both practical and effective for trauma situations such as the emergency room, ambulances and military situations. This allows warming to be applied in a controlled manner in a much wider range of circumstances. Products have been customised to take into account the needs of routine and specialised procedures alike. Applications include: Accident & Emergency; Patient Transport; Rescue; Military Applications; Perioperative areas; and Intensive Care.

Emergency Room

TraumaTherm Mattresses allow the medical team full access to the patient, whilst maintaining patient core temperature or re-warming the hypothermic patient. The uniform heat transfer characteristics, combined with large contact area, ensure the patient is warmed without affecting the surrounding environment and staff. Heating blankets using the same technology are available should additional warming be required for special cases. Warming can start as soon as the patient arrives in the department and continue uninterrupted throughout the period of treatment.

Transport

Inditherm's systems use the same power as a light bulb and do not use air or water, making them practical and convenient for transport applications. This applies equally to internal transport within the hospital or use in ambulances and other rescue and emergency vehicles.

Military Applications

The compact design, high performance and low power consumption make the system ideal for military applications. Reliability is assured by the robust design that has no moving parts. Systems are already in use in field hospitals, active conflict zones and on naval vessels, with a range of international armed forces.

Other Applications

TraumaTherm, Inditherm Alpha and CosyTherm systems are also widely used for perioperative and neonatal warming applications, including pre-op, operating room, recovery room (PACU), neonatal unit, delivery suite and post-natal wards.

Fully Compliant

Inditherm products have been proven in a wide range of demanding Operating Room and Emergency care situations and environments. They have been shown to be fully compatible with all other electronic medical devices. Products are fully approved to international medical device standards.
