Read the full statement (132 words)

The Fisher & Paykel Healthcare PW810 Patient Warmer is an Infrared Lamp (as per 89 ILY, 21 CFR §890.5500) containing an infrared heating element to be positioned above an operating table or similar patient bed, in order to maintain a patient’s body temperature by means of controlled radiant heat.

The PW810 is intended to provide topical heating to patients in clinical situations where external thermal support is required or desirable. This may include during or following surgical procedures, hypothermia recovery, and severe burns patients.

Situations which necessitate unobstructed access to a patient may indicate the need for a radiant heat source, in preference to thermal regulation systems which rely on extensive surface contact with a patient. Minimal direct contact by a warming system may also be required for particular injuries to patients.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
