Continuous warmth, soothing comfort from the start to finish of surgery

Heat Treat medical warming blankets keep patients warm and help reduce anxiety during surgery. In a clinical study, 100 percent of patients said they would use Heat Treat medical warming blankets again and recommend it to others.

Anyone who has undergone surgery can attest to one thing: you can count on being cold. Surgical areas are kept cold in part to ensure the comfort of physicians and nurses bundled in sterile gowns and gloves. Patients are not so fortunate. Dressed in lightweight gowns and draped in cotton blankets, patients are uniformly cold during surgery. Even when cotton blankets are warmed, the heat lasts just 10 minutes.

It's not just a matter of comfort either. Patients can develop hypothermia, or lower body temperature, due to the cold. This can increase the risk of potentially life-threatening complications during surgery like bleeding, heart problems and infections. Treating these problems results in longer hospital stays and higher hospital bills.

The Solution: Heat Treat Medical Warming Blankets. In 2006, an anesthesiologist recognized the need to keep patients warmer and safer during surgery. Heat Treat medical warming blankets were born. Using time-tested technology, Heat Treat medical warming blankets are designed to provide continuous warmth for up to 12 hours. One blanket can take a patient from pre-surgery to post surgery in soothing comfort.

Heat Treat medical warming blankets are environmentally friendly, too. The blankets are self-heating thanks to a natural chemical reaction. No energy is needed to keep patients Simply Warm.
