Because you care

optimum
warmth

The combination of
conductive warmth from
the heated gel mattress
and radiant warmth
from the overhead hea­ter enables you to warm
up cold babies quickly.

The latest generation of BabyTherm infant warm­ing systems from Dräger Medical sets new stan­dards in open care – not only in providing new­born babies with a unique thermal environment,
but also in ensuring you enjoy outstanding ease of
access so you can give them the best possible
care.

SmartSWIVEL for focused warmth

The smartSWIVEL mechanism featured in the
BabyTherm 8004 and 8010 models automatically
focuses radiant warmth on the baby, even if the
radiant heater is moved to one side. As a result,
you don’t need to worry about the baby cooling
down or suffering cold stress during X-rays or
other procedures because you can be sure of
even radiant heat distribution at all times.

Even spread of heat

The BabyTherm’s ceramic heater elements and
golden reflectors provide even heat distribution
over the entire bed area. So wherever you place
the baby on the bed, your little patient will always
feel comfortably warm.

Early-warning ThermoMonitoring™

Measuring a baby’s central and peripheral (toe)
temperature gives you an early warning of thermal
instability or possible cold stress. The BabyTherm
8004 and 8010 offer you continuous monitoring
of both temperatures, enabling you to detect ther­mal stress at an early stage, by observing the
measured values on the integrated digital display.
The measurement data can be optionally down­loaded via an RS 232 interface to a monitor or PC.

The comfort of a warm gel mattress

The soft feel and soothing comfort of the actively
heated gel mattress, that comes standard with the
BabyTherm 8000* and 8010, add to the controlled
thermal environment to make your little patient feel
considerably more comfortable. By using the heat­ed gel mattress, you can reduce the output from
the radiant heater, which in turn reduces insensi­ble water loss. In addition, the combination of con­ductive warmth from the heated gel mattress and
radiant warmth from the overhead heater enables
you to warm up cold babies quickly.

... so your little patients prosper

optimum
ergonomics

We care about ergonomics because you want to
give your little patients the best possible care.
That’s why the BabyTherm series is designed to
allow you to work under ideal ergonomic condi­tions. In practical terms, this translates into opti­mum ease of access and the sensible arrange­ment of all control or display features.

smartSWIVEL® for more space

The patented smartSWIVEL® mechanism on the
BabyTherm 8004 and 8010 is not only good for
the baby, it also provides you with more working
space, easier access to the baby and a more
comfortable working environment because you
don’t have to work right underneath a radiant
heater and are therefore not exposed to the radi­ant heat.

Convenient control panel

The control panel positioned directly beneath the
radiant warmer is easy to reach so you can adjust
the settings with no trouble at all. Another advan­tage is that you will easily be able to read all the
essential information on the large, bright digital
display from any position around the bed.

Easy-to-spot alarm

The bright red central warning light at the end of
the radiant warmer will alert you to an alarm con­dition even if you are working with another baby
or in a different part of the room. A clear text
message then provides you with all the details
you require.

Ease of use

Our efforts to ensure you enjoy the best possible
working conditions are reflected in a number of
practical features. The height of a BabyTherm can
be adjusted to suit your height, swivel cupboards
are available to give you extra storage space for
accessories and all the moving parts or control
functions are easy to handle.

Just the right lights

A quartz halogen phototherapy system integrated
into the overhead housing on the BabyTherm
8004 and 8010 enables you to instantly adminis­ter high output phototherapy without using up any
valuable footspace.

The examination lamp features settings for day
and night. Two brightness levels provide just the
right lightning anytime.

The intuitive control
panel features clear text
messages to provide
you with all the neces­sary information.

The smooth bed tilt can
be adjusted between
20°down and 15° up
