Snuggle Warm ® <strong>Convective</strong> Warming Blankets<br />
S E C T I O N 2 • D e s c r i p t i o n<br />
The convective warming blanket consists of two layers of non-woven polypropylene fabric coated with a layer<br />
of polyethylene. The layers are bonded together to form a distribution network of air delivery channels. The<br />
warm air is distributed around the blanket through the delivery channels and exits the blanket through a<br />
specially designed series of perforations in the patient side of the blanket. The distribution of air is designed to<br />
minimize temperature differences throughout the blanket. Refer to Appendix A, <strong>Convective</strong> Warming<br />
Blanket Identification Chart, for the list of blankets available.<br />
