KANMED Operatherm OP3-022 Patient Warming System: Safety, Precision, and Efficiency for Perioperative Care
The KANMED Operatherm OP3-022 is a cutting-edge patient warming device specifically designed for clinical and hospital environments. It is used at all stages of surgical care: preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively, to prevent the risks of hypothermia—a common complication during surgery that can significantly impact patient recovery.
At the core of the system is a compact, lightweight control unit featuring a microprocessor-based temperature regulation system. This system continuously monitors the eight heating zones within the connected heating pad to ensure a consistent and controlled temperature. The unit calculates the average temperature of the pad in real-time and displays it on a clear digital screen, providing immediate and reliable readings for medical staff.
Upon activation, the device automatically conducts an auto-test of all its components, including its internal safety circuit. If any faults are detected, the system will prevent the heating from starting, activate both visual and acoustic alarms, and display the error type on the screen. This level of advanced self-monitoring enhances the device's reliability by ensuring safe operation with each use.
Patient safety is a top priority, and the control unit incorporates two autonomous safety circuits, completely independent of the microprocessor operating system. These circuits can stop the heating process at any time if an overtemperature condition is detected. The alarms are then triggered both visually and acoustically, allowing medical personnel to intervene immediately.
The system offers a temperature range of 33°C to 39°C, adjustable in 1°C increments, with accuracy better than ±1°C. The over-temperature alarm threshold is set at 41.0°C ± 0.5°C, providing an additional layer of protection against overheating. This level of precision is crucial for vulnerable patients, especially during long surgeries or in post-operative recovery.
With compact dimensions of 255 x 150 x 120 mm and a weight of 6 kg, the Operatherm OP3-022 is easy to integrate into any surgical environment. It operates across a wide voltage range (100 to 240 V AC) and a frequency of 50/60 Hz, making it compatible with international standards.
Designed for continuous operation, this device seamlessly integrates into perioperative care protocols. It is the result of KANMED's expertise in thermoregulation systems and is ideal for healthcare facilities aiming to provide secure and effective thermal management. Thanks to its intelligent design, multiple safety features, and ease of use, the Operatherm OP3-022 is a perfect choice for ensuring safe and effective patient warming during medical procedures.
