Blood and Fluid Warming Sets
•
Six styles of warming set are available in the UK:
One neonatal/paediatric (KVO-6L/hr), two standard flow (KVO-9L/hr) and three high flow
(KVO-30L/hr) disposable sets to meet your fluid warming needs.
•
All warming sets incorporate an air capture system, to reduce the risk of an air emboli being infused into the patient.
•
All high flow sets are equipped with an auto-venting bubble trap, that is capable of venting up to 3 litres
of air per minute.
•
Sets can only be inserted into the warming unit one way, this prevents incorrect placement.
•
All sets can be pressurised to 300 mmHg.
•
All sets are packed sterile and are latex and DEHP free.
Stand alone pressure infuser
•
When mounting the pressure infuser to an IV
pole, position it no higher than 142cm (56”) off
the ground, on to a heavy based five footed
IV pole. This will reduce the risk of the IV pole
tipping and potentially causing injury
to someone.
•
Secure the infuser to the IV pole by tightening
the two clamps on the back of the unit and the
power cable, using the hook-and-loop strap.
•
Never infuse fluids if air bubbles are present
in the fluid line, air embolism may result.
•
The pressure infuser can be used with all
