Inditherm’s veterinary warming systems have recently been installed in a new veterinary centre in the West Midlands. The Willows Veterinary Centre & Referral Service is a brand new, state of the art facility for treating a range of animals. The purpose-built centre was opened in August 2009 and provides leading edge treatment for patients from all around the UK.
The Willows have equipped their operating theatres and intensive care unit with PetTherm systems, some of them custom made to meet the special needs of some animals. Inditherm worked closely with the clinicians to ensure all products met the practical needs of the centre and its patients.
The clinical importance of preventing hypothermia in animals was recognised by the surgical teams at Willows and became a fundamental requirement for their new facilities. This is an important reference centre for Inditherm due to the large number of other veterinary surgeons who visit and train there.
Commenting on the installation of the PetTherm systems Inditherm’s CEO, Nick Bettles, said: “It is nice to know that our technology was the system of choice at a centre equipped throughout with the best technology available. The promotion of the importance of preventing hypothermia in animals during surgery by such leading veterinary specialists will hopefully lead to an increase in routine warming in veterinary practice. Research has already shown that this will increase survival rates and significantly reduce complications in pets and other animals, as it does in humans.”
