[A new safe system for the prevention of peroperative hypothermia (author's transl)].
On the basis of our experiences and data from the literature concerning thermal injury by warming blankets in anaesthetized patients, a new and safe system for the maintenance of body temperature during the operation is described. The following advantages are emphasized: 1. Adjustable double-thermostat with audible alarm. 2. Easy-to-read control thermometer of water bath. 3. Thermal blanket water temperature cannot rise above 43 degrees C.
