A clinical garment for patient warming including a front body panel having a first edge, an opposite second edge, an insulated sheet comprising an insulated layer positioned between an outer layer a film layer, a permeable layer adjacent to the film layer of the insulated sheet, a blanket section defined by a lower portion of the insulated sheet sealed to a lower portion of the permeable along a top edge, a bottom edge, and opposite first and second side edges of the blanket section, and at least one inlet port extending into the blanket section. The garment further includes a first back panel secured to at least a portion of the first edge of the front body panel and a second back panel secured to at least a portion of the second edge of the front body panel.

Patient warming systems and corresponding methods

A warming blanket for warming a patient includes a first sheet including a first major surface of the warming blanket, and a second sheet including a second major surface of the warming blanket. The second sheet is sealingly joined to the first sheet to form one or more inflatable portions between the first and second sheets. An adhesive layer is disposed on the first major surface of the first sheet. A liner assembly is disposed on the adhesive layer opposite to the first major surface and fully covers the adhesive layer. The liner assembly includes a plurality of release liners delimited from each other and releasably bonded to the adhesive layer, such that each release liner is independently removable from the liner assembly to expose a corresponding portion of the adhesive layer. Each of the first sheet, the adhesive layer, and the plurality of release liners is air-permeable.

Warming blanket and method of use thereof

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a warming system including a warming device. The warming device includes a clinical garment comprising a body portion adapted to cover a portion of a patient, an inner surface for facing the patient, and an outer surface for facing away from the patient. The body portion includes sleeves sized and positioned for receiving the patient's arms and a torso portion adapted to cover an anterior torso of a patient. A first pneumatic convective device can be disposed adjacent to the inner surface of the clinical garment. The pneumatic convective device can include an opening formed in the clinical garment for admitting a stream of pressurized, warmed air into the first pneumatic convective device. The warming system can also have a second pneumatic convective device in a fully-folded configuration or partially-folded configuration and disposed on a portion of the clinical garment.
