7.
Can the HotDog System be used in x-rays?
Yes. The heater fabric is completely radiolucent. However,
each Warming Blanket and Mattress has parallel busbars that run along the long edge of the warming
device. These can be seen on x-ray. In addition, the area around the sensor is also radio-opaque. If x-raying
will be done (through the chest cavity, for example) then the Mattress should be positioned or rotated 180
°
such that the imaging area does not contain the sensor.
8.
Does HotDog offer any warming options for cases using steep Trendelenburg?
Yes. Procedures where
the patient is positioned in steep Trendelenburg historically result in high rates of hypothermia due to the
small surface area available for warming. The HotDog WaffleGrip Trendelenburg positioning accessory
effectively prevents the patient from sliding on the table while still providing warmth under the patient.
9.
Why do HotDog blankets and mattresses expire?
Over time the electric current flowing over the
conductive polymer fabric oxidizes it, changing its resistance and the time it needs to reach temperature.
When new it only takes a few minutes to reach the set temperature. After 30 months of use it will take
closer to 10 minutes to reach the set temperature. We have no data to support the use of the Devices
beyond 30 months.
