3M Bair Hugger Warming Unit Temperature Test Kit, 22110
A temperature testing kit used to verify output temperature accuracy on a specific range of Bair Hugger warming unit models during maintenance checks.
The 3M Bair Hugger Warming Unit Temperature Test Kit, catalog number 22110, is used by biomedical technicians to verify that a specific range of Bair Hugger warming unit models are delivering air at the correct, expected output temperature. Periodic temperature testing is an important part of maintaining confidence in a warming unit's clinical performance, since a unit that runs hotter or cooler than its displayed setting could affect patient safety or the effectiveness of warming therapy during surgery.
This kit is built to test a particular set of warming unit equipment models, and the source data notes it is one of two related test kits that were separated because they verify different, incompatible warming unit models rather than being interchangeable variants of the same kit. Facilities running a mixed fleet of Bair Hugger units across different generations or configurations need to confirm which test kit matches each specific unit before carrying out a temperature verification check, since using an incompatible kit would not give a reliable test result.
Biomedical engineering teams responsible for a hospital's warming equipment maintenance programme keep the correct kit variant on hand for each unit type they service.
