WHY USE COCOON BLANKETS

Blankets have Micro-porous holes which gives:

• Controlled, even distribution of airflow throughout the blankets.

• minimum disruption of laminar flow, directly onto surface of patient and minimise debris entering surgical field.

• Micro pores eliminates the chance of red-spots or burn marks on children.

Page 6: CACOON WARMERS

WHY USE COCOON BLANKETS

• Blankets have universal tie system, thus, the same Cocoon blanket can be used during pre/intra/post operation .

• Cocoon blankets can be used with any other blower because of universal tie system.

• The fabric touching the skin is spunlace nonwoven polyester – soothing and safe.

• The fabric on the other layer is poly propylene spun-bond nonwoven, which is safe and strong.

WHY USE COCOON BLANKETS

• Blanket doesn’t tear (top layer is strong and made up of fabric) when drape is removed and the same blankets can be used both in operation and recovery. In fact pre warming, intra and post warming can be done with just one blanket.

• Tie system adds to ease of reusing on same patient.• More than one port for flexibility.• Ports from side ensures that hose doesn’t obstruct

clinicians, also easy to manage the hose weight.• Two different clips to manage the weight of the hose.• Extra fabric cover on the sides – better warming, protection

from disrupting the laminar flow.• We have about 20 different blankets and we can make

blankets as per your request.• Seven Under body blankets.

WHY USE COCOON WARMERS?

• Warming Machine is light, compact and sturdy.• Designed to protect from fluid.• Protective hose cover delivers thermal insulation

and ease of cleaning. Helps in infection control.• Low noise (Approx 50 db as compared to 55db)• Use of one type of blower for all blankets.• Has boost button of 46 degC for 10 minutes.• Has extra bed mount hook to hang the unit

against bed without any stand.

Page 10: CACOON WARMERS

WHY USE COCOON WARMERS?

• Better Infection control: 0.2 micron Hepa Filters-1000hrs.

• Filter placed closest to outlet - Ensures only the cleanest air is delivered to patient.

• Filter not on the bottom- doesn’t suck dust from the floor.

• Vents designed for protection from fluid ingress.

ReferencesHi Abhay, We have just used the Lithotomy and Laparoscopy blanket with a colorectal surgeon. It's brilliant. I'm going to gently try to drive change from the surgical side. I've passed on the details to the surgeon and his regular anesthetist.

ReferencesGood afternoon Abhay, I just wanted to thank you very much for the prompt delivery of the extra machine for our endoscopy unit and for the box of Lithotomy blankets for trial.

I used one of the blankets yesterday for a patient having a laparotomy and it was superb. I wanted to let you and Robert both know that the blanket can be utilised for laparotomy patients with great success. You may wish to let other users know of my success using it this way. I will continue to trial the blanket and will let you know how we go. Once again thank you for the prompt response and I look forward to continuing our business with you and Robert. Enjoy the festive season. Kind regards,Jodie Jodie SheehanNurse Unit Manager | AnaestheticsLoftus Street, Level 2 Block A, Operating Theatres, Wollongong Hospital.
