Inflatable Thermal Blanket With Provision For Being Secured During Use

US Patent:
5773275, Jun 30, 1998
Filed:
Sep 21, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/531772
Inventors:
Thomas P. Anderson - Savage MN
Mark F. Brier - Daytona Beach FL
Assignee:
Augustine Medical, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
A61F 700
US Classification:
601104
Abstract:
An inflatable thermal blanket for thermal blanket and bathing a patient in a thermally-controlled inflating medium includes an inflatable thermal blanket with selectively activated ties to secure the thermal blanket to itself or hospital equipment. The inflatable thermal blanket has an outer edge and one or more substantially flat flexible flaps along the outer edge. Selected portions of the flaps include boundaries, such as perforations, defining corresponding ties. Selected ones of the ties are activated by detaching them along their respective boundaries. Then, the ties are attached to hospital equipment, or opposing ties may be attached to each other.

Underbody Convective Warming Blanket Constructions

US Patent:
8177828, May 15, 2012
Filed:
Jul 27, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/460981
Inventors:
Thomas P. Anderson - Savage MN, US
Andrew J. McGregor - Minneapolis MN, US
Mark J. Scott - Maple Grove MN, US
Assignee:
Arizant Healthcare Inc. - Eden Prairie MN

A61F 7/00, A47C 27/08
US Classification:
607107, 607104, 607108, 5706, 5714
Abstract:
An underbody convective warming blanket includes a duct that is separate from, but in fluid communication with, interior space of the underbody convective warming blanket. The duct may be deployed to provide an air circulation conduit to shunt air around the air distribution structure in the interior space. The duct may be a flexible tube having a first end coupled to a first duct port in the underbody convective warming blanket near a first end of the underbody convective warming blanket and a second end to be coupled to a second duct port in the underbody convective warming blanket near a second end of the underbody convective warming blanket. An underbody convective warming blanket may include a midsection with an elongate columnar configuration which transitions at an end, or at each end, to a plinth-like configuration.
