Healthcare facilities are working hard to identify and remove the sources of nosocomial pathogens and the resulting hospital-acquired infections. One potential source of nosocomial pathogens has garnered considerable attention—water bath fluid warmers. Warm water has long been identified as a potential source of gram-negative bacilli. More specifically, if not properly maintained, water bath fluid warmers are a potential source of nosocomial pathogens. Traditional operating theatre water baths caused several outbreaks of serious nosocomial infection. Smart alternatives to water bath technology exist. Dry heat fluid warming devices like the Ranger blood/fluid warming unit, 24500, use metal plates within the warming unit. IV fluid flows through disposable sets and is warmed prior to reaching the patient. No water. No risk of water-related infection.
