1-2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE BLANKETROL II SYSTEM
INDICATIONS FOR USE
The BLANKETROL II Hyper-Hypothermia Temperature Management System is used to lower
or to raise a patient’s temperature and/or maintain a desired patient temperature through
conductive heat transfer. The system is composed of a heater, a compressor, a circulating
pump and blankets/pads.
BLANKETROL II Model 222S
This unit requires no field adjustments or calibrations in order to maintain the board
measurement of temperature and temperature limits.
Distilled water is heated or cooled and pumped from the unit to a blanket. The blanket* rests
under and/or on top of the patient and is designed so that the water circulates through the
blanket and returns to the unit.
If water that is at a lower temperature than the patient’s temperature is circulated through the
blanket, the desired effect is to reduce the patient's temperature. If water that is at a higher
temperature than the patient’s temperature is circulated through the blanket, the desired effect is
to elevate the patient's temperature.
The BLANKETROL II unit can be set so that it operates based on the temperature of the water
in the BLANKETROL II equipment (
MANUAL CONTROL MODE
) or it can be set so that it
operates based upon the patient’s temperature (
AUTO CONTROL MODE
).
The BLANKETROL II unit can also be used solely to monitor the temperature of the patient
(
MONITOR ONLY MODE
).
The BLANKETROL II 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).
* The recommended blanket(s) for use are described in Section (1-4.)
