IV WARMER is rugged and portable
 with a soft case that can go anywhere

Model 3000 Intravenous Fluid Warmer
(FDA K921395)

One of the advantages of warmed IV Fluids at normal body temperature is the improved absorption of administered medications (+/- 10% per degree F compared to cold IV fluids) 

Cold IV fluids may induce hypothermia in compromised patients and those that are predisposed to hypothermia, for example:

  • further cooling of hypothermic patients
  • cooling of traumatized patients (slowed metabolic heat production)
  • cooling of geriatric patients
    (poor circulation, slowed metabolism) - diabetic patients
  • cooling of pediatric patients (small body mass)
  • cooling of burn victims (replacing plasma loss)
  • Holds at a safe temperature indefinitely with out overheating

Life-saving equipment keeping hypothermia victims alive with core rewarming techniques, supplying warm humidified air or oxygen and warm IV-fluids to minimize core-temperature afterdrop.

IV WARMER loses only one degree in ten minutes - at below freezing in a  5 to 10 knot wind when disconnected from the power source.

Basic Treatment for Hypothermia:
IV fluids should be heated to approximately 104° - 108° F (40o– 42° C), but should be no colder than the patient’s core temperature.
