A fluid warming and infusion system. According to one embodiment, the fluid warming and infusion system includes a container for storing a fluid to be infused into a patient, a fluid warmer for warming the fluid prior to the fluid being infused into the patient, a tubing for delivering the fluid to the patient after the fluid has been warmed by the fluid warmer, and a patient insertion device (e.g., a needle, or the like), which is connected to a distal end of the tubing, for insertion into the patient. After being warmed by the fluid warmer, the fluid flows through the tubing and is delivered into the patient by the insertion device. The tube includes a substantially thermally insulating component that prevents the warmed fluid from losing a substantial amount of heat as the fluid flows through the tube.
