New Research with Familiar Findings: Forced-air Warming is the Gold Standard. Warming methods come and go, but in the process of trying to prove their worth, they inevitably compare themselves to forced-air warming. Several abstracts related to patient warming methods were presented during the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Annual Meeting. The Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services’ normothermia quality measure, SCIP-Infection-10, mandates effective warming for patients young and old, and procedures large or small.* These latest clinical abstracts comparing Arizant’s forced-air warming technology—Bair Hugger therapy and the Bair Paws® patient adjustable warming system—makes clear that forced-air warming is a great way to warm patients.
*Procedures under general or neuraxial anesthesia for 60 minutes or longer. |
