Veterinary Warming - Features and Benefits

Coloured blocks

PetTherm is an ideal system for preventing hypothermia in pets and other animals. It uses the very latest technology to deliver high warming performance and reduce maintenance costs. All animals undergoing surgery can be warmed for the same running cost as a light-bulb, delivering faster recovery times and better outcomes.

High Performance

PetTherm exploits Inditherm's patented flexible polymer technology to provide unrivalled warming performance. The system uses a mattress or pad with integral pressure relief to prevent pressure sores and at the same time provide high contact area between the patient and the soft heating surface. The design ensures high thermal transfer characteristics to prevent hypothermia during veterinary surgery.

Practical & Convenient

The PetTherm system is both practical and convenient. It can be adapted to fit the full range of veterinary operating and examination tables and also recovery cages and kennels. It is unobtrusive, giving unrestricted access to the patient. The system is simple to operate and fully sealed making it very easy to clean, saving time and simplifying infection control.

Economic

The durable construction gives long life and eliminates maintenance costs. Running cost is the same as a light-bulb, allowing the system to be used economically on all patients. There are no consumable or disposable parts.

Simple To Use

PetTherm patient warming systems are easy to use and provide a high level of patient care. The control unit offers user-selectable temperature with three ranges to suit different situations. The unit is compact and can be mounted on an IV pole or anaesthetic trolley.

Pressure Relief

The unique design fully integrates high performance viscoelastic foam into the mattresses, providing excellent pressure relief. There is therefore no requirement for cumbersome and inconvenient gel pads. This added benefit has been proven to out-perform traditional gel pads, even in human patients (see Comparison: Pressure Relief).

Safe & Reliable

Safety is assured by the low voltage operation, with no vulnerable heating elements due to the use of Inditherm's flexible polymer technology. No water or circulating air is required, reducing risk of infection, and the mattresses are fully sealed to allow easy and thorough cleaning.
