More power for °MEQU’s portable blood warming system
In use by HEMS and military organizations around the world, the blood and intravenous (IV) fluid warming device now has more power
The °M Warmer System is a compact portable blood and IV fluid warming device that is widely used in prehospital emergency settings, such as rescue helicopters, ambulances, and rapid response vehicles. The °M Warmer System has also sold to special forces and military organizations in the US, UK, France, Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands and Denmark. The device allows for easy and safe blood transfusions at the point of injury – even if it takes place in remote areas or battlefields.
“We are pleased to announce the official launch of our new battery, Power Pack⁺, which has more than one-third increased capacity compared to the current Power Pack. This means, with Power Pack⁺, two liters of cold blood (5°C) can be warmed up and infused to a patient on a single charge of the battery. It is truly a meaningful development as this is a step forward to further increasing the survival rate of trauma patients who suffer from hypothermia and bleeding,” commented CEO Ulrik Krogh Andersen.
°M Warmer was awarded The Red Dot Design Award in 2018 for its minimalistic and user-friendly expression. Weighing between 760 and 820 grams, it’s designed for intuitive and instant use in critical trauma situations.
