warmUP™ Control Unit
warmUP™ Sleeve
The warmUP™ is a non-invasive fluid-based patient warming system that is FDA cleared to rapidly warm and enhance blood flow through the hand. During surgery the warmUP™ is a closed looped system without noisy, hot, forced air to disrupt airflow in the operating room. The warmUP™’s single patient use arm warming sleeve decouples easily from the base unit so that it can move with the patient, providing flexibility to use the same interface from pre-op to recovery.
Perioperative Warming
Quick connect hose enables patients to move from pre-op to OR to PACU with a single warming sleeve.
Risk Management
No blowing hot air or exhaust fans. Closed system during surgery does not disrupt operating room airflow. No risk of burns. Heat source never exceeds 41°C.
Inventory Management
Universal adult sleeve reduces SKU’s – allowing for more efficient supply chain management and reduced carrying costs.
Infection Control
No HEPA filters to maintain and exchange. Easy to clean umbilical.
How It Works
Under general anesthesia a patient’s core body temperature decreases and hypothermia can result. Also, the vasculature in the palms of the hands naturally vasodilate shunting blood flow to the surface of the palm. The warmUP™ applies a mild vacuum which dramatically increases blood flow in the palm. By then perfusing a circulating water heat source, the warrnUP™ safely and non-invasively warms the blood flow in the palm. Today’s existing non-invasive warming technologies must transfer heat into the core body through the thermal barrier of adipose tissue and muscle. With warmUP™, warmed blood flows directly back to the heart from the palm to efficiently maintain core body temperature.
