BODY TEMPERATURE RESPONSIVE TRANSPORT WARMING BLANKET

摘要

An infant warming blanket (10) is servo controlled by a temperature probe (36) being taped to the abdominal skin of the infant. Through use of the blanket (10) it is possible to maintain a constant body temperature. Access to localized areas of the body is possible by removal of blanket strips (16 and 18) to expose the area requiring attention. The blanket has a first solid section (12) to which a second section (14) of individual strips (16 and 18) having varying widths are integrally attached. The electrical heating elements (20) run through both sections (12 and 14).
