Operator's Manual

Introduction

Description of the 3M™ Bair Hugger™ Temperature
Management System
The Bair Hugger temperature management system consists of a
Model 775 warming unit (with optional rolling stand, and other
accessories) along with a 3M warming blanket, Bair Hugger warming
gown, or the 3M™ Ranger™ 241 blood/fluid warming set.
The Bair Hugger warming unit is attached to the warming blanket or
warming gown by means of a flexible hose. Warm air is generated
in the warming unit and flows through the warming unit hose and
into the blanket or gown. Depending on the model, the 3M blanket
or gown is placed either around, over, or underneath the patient.
Small perforations on the blanket or gown allow the warm air to be
dispersed over the patient. For blood/fluid warming applications, the
Model 241 blood/fluid warming set is inserted in the warming unit
hose. When the warming unit is turned ON and a temperature setting
is selected, warm air flows over the Model 241 tubing and warmed
blood/fluid exits from the distal end of the tubing. For additional
information on 3M blankets, gowns, the 241 warming set, or other
accessories visit us online at bairhugger.com.
This manual includes operating instructions and warming unit
specifications for the Model 775 warming unit. You can use the
Model 775 warming unit in all clinical settings where the patient may
feel too warm or too cold; including the operating room to provide
patient temperature management. For information about using
3M blankets, gowns or the 241 blood/fluid warming set with the
Model 775 warming unit, refer to the respective Instructions for Use.
