Infusion Fluid Warmer

Description

Product Description

Model: Infusion Fluid Warmer – TF 2

The device shown in the image is a portable infusion fluid warmer, a medical device used to heat intravenous (IV) fluids or blood products before they are administered to a patient. This helps maintain patient body temperature (normothermia) and prevents hypothermia, which can cause complications, especially during surgery, trauma care, or rapid infusions.

Usage

The fluid warmer is typically attached to an IV pole using a built-in clamp or strap and positioned close to the patient’s injection site to minimize heat loss in the tubing.

Key Details and Features

• Function: It uses a dry-heat method to warm the fluid as it passes through the tubing, which is placed within the heating plate groove.
• Design: The compact, clamp-shell design allows the standard IV tubing to be easily inserted into the curved metal heating path. The device is portable and often lightweight, making it suitable for use in ambulances, field hospitals, and various clinical settings like ICUs and operating rooms.
• Temperature Control: These devices typically have microprocessor-controlled temperature settings, often adjustable between 35°C and 42°C (95°F to 107.6°F). They include safety features like automatic shut-off and audible/visual alarms to prevent overheating.
• Compatibility: They are designed to be compatible with standard, single-use IV tubing sets, eliminating the need for special consumables.
