SECTION 2 • Description

SECTION 2

Description

The HOTLINE® Warmer delivers blood and intravenous fluid at normothermic temperatures by surrounding the sterile intravenous line with a layer of warmed recirculating solution. An onboard recirculating solution supply is heated to 41.5°C ± 0.5 and circulated through the outer lumen of the HOTLINE intravenous line.

Fluid Warming Set, which surrounds the

The HOTLINE

Warmer employs a safe, recirculating solution heating system, inherently free of “hot spots,” to actively warm the patient line. Electronic circuitry continuously monitors the recirculating solution temperature. The primary temperature control circuit limits the recirculating solution to 42°C maximum. In the unlikely event of a malfunction of this circuit, a second “watchdog” circuit will visually and audibly alarm and stop the recirculating solution pump if the temperature reaches 43.1°C. Fluid in the HOTLINE

Fluid Warming Set is never exposed to any damaging or dangerous temperatures while the HOTLINE

Warmer is operating.

The recirculating solution temperature and visual alarms are indicated on the Display Panel on the front of the HOTLINE Operating light illuminates on this panel when the HOTLINE

Temperature Verification of the Recirculating Solution

Use the Level 1® TEMP CHECK Thermometer (HLTA-40) to verify the displayed recirculating solution temperature. Other methods of temperature verification may be inaccurate.

HOTLINE

Fluid Warmer

TEMP CHECK provides an accurate reading of the highest temperature of the recirculating solution. Because the temperature of the reservoir is typically 0.5°C to 2.0°C lower than the temperature from the heater, and the temperature of the recirculating solution begins to drop due to the effect of ambient temperature on the HOTLINE

Fluid Warming Set, the highest temperature of the solution is just after it leaves the heater. During the temperature verification test, the TEMP CHECK is positioned on the right side of the HOTLINE solution just after it leaves the heater and before it enters the HOTLINE

Warmer attached to the socket and senses the

Fluid Warming Set.

Refer to the TEMP CHECK HLTA-40 Thermometer Operator's Manual for complete Temperature Verification and Calibration Instructions.
