Bair Hugger: $1,921.43/each + freight
A Bair Hugger device uses warm air to keep patients warm, which is safer and more effective than heating pads or hot water bottles. We have patients as small as 5 or 10 grams (that’s about 1/4 oz!) who undergo surgery, and keeping them warm for procedures is critical for success. We can disinfect and reuse these washable blankets, which are sold separately ($39.95) and used with the Bair Hugger.

CO2 Output Monitor (Micro Capnometer): $756.00
Having this Micro Capnometer on hand will give our treatment team the ability to monitor carbon dioxide levels in a patient’s airway.
