Intended Use
The WarmAir® 135 patient warming system is intended to prevent hypothermia and/or reduce cold discomfort before, during, and after surgical procedures. The thermal regulating system is used to raise a patient's temperature and/or maintain a desired patient temperature through convective heat transfer from the controller to a warm-airheated blanket. The single-patient use blankets transfer the thermal energy to adult, pediatric or neonate patients to obtain/maintain normal body temperature. It is intended for use by appropriately trained healthcare professionals in clinical environments.
Device Description
The WarmAir 135 Hyperthermia System is a patient temperature management device which provides forced air warmed by the controller to a blanket that is placed over or under adult, pediatric or neonatal patients in order to warm them. The heated air is blown through connecting flexible hose to a disposable blanket to provide patient therapy by the means of warmed air.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a forced-air patient warming system with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The device functions based on convective heat transfer and temperature control, not data-driven algorithms.

Yes
The device is intended to prevent hypothermia, raise, and maintain a patient's temperature, which are therapeutic actions.

No
The device is a patient warming system intended to prevent hypothermia and provide thermal regulation; it does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a controller, flexible hose, and disposable blankets, indicating it is a physical system, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The WarmAir® 135 patient warming system is a therapeutic device. Its purpose is to directly warm a patient's body through convective heat transfer. It does not analyze any biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states its purpose is to prevent hypothermia and/or reduce cold discomfort by warming the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device warms air and delivers it to a blanket placed on the patient. There is no mention of analyzing samples.

Therefore, the WarmAir® 135 patient warming system falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The changes to the blanket were evaluated under design controls and met the same criteria as non-sterile blankets. Testing showed the sterile blanket meets the specification for maximum temperature delivered to the patient (per ASTM F-2196) post sterilization.

through connecting flexible hose to a disposable blanket to provide patient therapy by the means of warmed air.

The system can be used in long-term care facilities, surgical facilities, hospitals including the Post-anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU), Emergency Room (ER), Operating Room (OR), recovery room, medical and surgical floors, emergency department, or any other department or hospital facility requiring patient temperature management.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CHANGES TO THE DEVICE

The predicate WarmAir Model 135 System included a variety of blankets in various sizes and shapes and was cleared in K101148. This submission is to add a modified blanket to the family of WarmAir 135 blankets. The modified blanket is manufactured from the same materials using the same manufacturing methods as the already cleared blankets. The differences are that the modified blanket is provided sterile, differs in size from other blankets, and includes a flap to allow access to the groin area of the patient.

INTENDED USE

The WarmAir 135 patient warming system is intended to prevent hypothermia and/or reduce cold discomfort before, during, and after surgical procedures. The thermal regulating system is used to raise a patient's temperature and/or maintain a desired patient temperature through convective heat transfer from the controller to a warm-airheated blanket. The single-patient use blankets transfer the thermal energy to adult, pediatric, or neonate patients to obtain/maintain normal body temperature. It is intended for use by appropriately trained healthcare professionals in clinical environments.

COMPLETION OF DESIGN CONTROL ACTIVITIES

The changes to the blanket were evaluated under design controls and met the same criteria as non-sterile blankets. Testing showed the sterile blanket meets the specification for maximum temperature delivered to the patient (per ASTM F-2196) post sterilization.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The modified device has the same intended use as the predicates and similar technological characteristics that do not raise different types of questions of safety and effectiveness and the modified device is therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
