PRODUCTS Premium warming range
Mistral-Air premium warming products are available from Central Medical Supplies (CMS), which has extensive expertise in providing hospital Trusts with patient warming products. The Mistral-Air Premium Warming range includes both a blanket and suit. The range features a reflective material on the non-patient side, providing both passive and active warming.
The Mistral-Air Premium Warming Blanket is an all-in-one system for keeping a patient warm during the entire perioperative procedure. The blanket’s insulating top layer is said to increase the warming capacity by at least 10%, by reducing radiant heat loss. According to CMS, the blankets can reduce heat loss by up to 80% in the perioperative environment. The Mistral-Air Premium Warming Suit can be used instead of a surgical gown. After pre-warming, the suit can be separated; enabling it to be used as an upper or lower body cover during surgery. Post- surgery, the suit can be joined back together with the velcro tabs. It is suitable for
procedures that have a high hypothermia risk. CMS offers a range of temperature management products, from a number of different companies, which continue to be available via the NHS Supply Chain Patient Temperature Management framework. The company is the sole UK distributor for The 37Company, which manufactures a range of blood and fluid warmers, along with convective warming products. Products include the Fluido AirGuard blood and fluid warmer system, which combines fluid warming with safety and speed, and Fluido Compact, a coated device for daily blood and fluid warming.

Washer disinfectors
Dekomed’s Deko washer disinfectors are designed and constructed to meet high capacity, with up to 20 DIN baskets per cycle, while mantaining high reliability. Cycles can be altered to meet any special requirement, though the standard requirements are met with the fixed, tested and approved programmes inserted by the manufacturer. The PLC control system allows various means for recording and downloading the process data and other necessary information. The 7” colour touch- screen interface and display panel stores both the control data and independent data in the same location.

Tristel has developed a proprietary dual- chamber Capsule containing Base (citric acid) and Activator (sodium chlorite) solution. These are kept separate until the Capsule is burst and its contents diluted in 500ml of water to generate chlorine dioxide working solution for sporicidal surface disinfection. By uncoupling the liquid from the spreader hospital staff now decide how much liquid to use and which spreader to employ, whether that be a paper towel, a microfibre mitt or a biodegradable dry wipe. According to Tristel, SHOT can disinfect an entire patient bed space compared to many pre-saturated plastic wipes.
The SHOT Bottle and Doser are made of 100% reusable and recyclable polypropylene, and the Capsule is 100% recyclable.
