Hyperthermia System
Intended Use
The NORM-O-TEMP
®
Model 111W hyperthermia system is intended to prevent
hypothermia during surgical procedures and to reduce cold discomfort before, during,
and after a surgical procedure. The thermal regulating system is used to keep a patient
comfortable by maintaining blanket/pad water temperature through conductive heat
transfer. The water heated blankets transfer the thermal energy to adult, pediatric, and
infant (includes neonates) patients to keep a patient at a comfortable temperature.
The NORM-O-TEMP
®
system is composed of a heater, circulating pump, and
blankets/pads. It is intended for use by appropriately trained healthcare professionals
in clinical environments.
Intended Environment
The NORM-O-TEMP
®
hyperthermia system
is used in the Operating room, Post
Anesthesia Care Units, Recovery rooms, Intensive Care Units and Emergency Rooms.
The NORM-O-TEMP
® hyperthermia system
is intended for use in ambient temperatures
of 15°C – 30°C (59°F – 86°F). The maximum contact surface temperature is 41°C
(105.8°F).
