Correspondence is connected to a Fenwal blood warming bag. This blood warming bag makes a very comfortable and efficient warming blanket. (Two bags connected in series could be used for bigger babies.) The system is closed by connecting the outlet tube of the warming blanket to the polyvinyl dextrose bag. The driving force for the system is derived from an lvac pump. The body temperature and the temperature of the warming blanket should be monitored during anaesthesia. The temperature of the warming blanket can be controlled by adjusting the infusion rate.Although the East Radcliffe humidifier has a very efficient thermostat an additional safety device is incorporated into the system to prevent overheating of the blanket. This consists of a 40°C bimetallic thermal switch, which senses the temperature of the fluid from the humidifier, and switches off the power supply to the humidifier when the temperature reaches 40°C.
