Patient Warming Gown 3M Bair Hugger Plus X-Large Blue Disposable, 20/Case

Key Features:

• X-Large Size: This specific model is designed to accommodate bariatric and larger surgical patients. It provides a comfortable and secure fit, with dimensions larger than a standard gown.
• Dual-Port Design: A key feature is the presence of two separate hose ports. This allows for both pre-operative comfort warming and intra-operative clinical warming with a more powerful Bair Hugger warming unit. This design eliminates the need to change gowns or use multiple blankets.
• Patient-Adjustable Warming: The gown system allows the patient to have control over their own thermal comfort. When connected to a compatible Bair Hugger warming unit, patients can adjust the temperature of the air flowing through the gown. This can help ease anxiety and improve the overall patient experience.
• Full Coverage and Modesty: The gown has a wrap-around, full-back design with side ties to ensure secure and complete coverage, addressing a common concern for larger patients.
• Soft, Flannel-like Fabric: The gown is made from a soft, comfortable material that resembles flannel, which is gentle on the skin and helps with patient satisfaction.
• Disposable: It’s a single-use product intended for one patient only, which helps to maintain infection control and reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

 

Uses:

• Preoperative Warming: It is used to warm larger patients before surgery, which can help offset the redistribution temperature drop caused by the induction of anesthesia and reduce patient anxiety.
• Intraoperative Warming: The gown can be connected to a Bair Hugger warming unit during surgery to maintain the patient’s core body temperature and prevent hypothermia. Hypothermia is associated with a range of costly complications.
• Postoperative Recovery: In the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), the gown continues to provide therapeutic warming, helping to aid in the patient’s recovery and improve their overall experience.
• Improved Patient Satisfaction: By providing warmth and a sense of control in a size that fits them, the warming gown helps to improve the overall patient experience and satisfaction with their care, particularly for bariatric patients.
