Intended Use
The device is intended for thermal regulating a patient's temperature to prevent hypothermia by a warm air heated blanket to reduce cold discomfort during and after surgical procedures.
Device Story
The Sterile Cardiac Blanket is a component of the Snuggle Warm 4000 Convective Warming System. It functions by receiving forced warm air from a convective warming unit through a connecting hose; the air inflates the blanket, which is placed on the patient to provide thermal regulation. Used in clinical settings during and after surgical procedures, the device is operated by healthcare professionals. The blanket helps maintain patient normothermia, preventing hypothermia and reducing cold discomfort. The sterile version provides the same warming functionality as the predicate non-sterile blankets, with added sterility for surgical environments.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing conducted per ASTM F 2196-02 verified that the blanket maintains a maximum contact surface temperature ≤ 48.0°C and an average contact surface temperature ≤ 46.0°C. Robustness was confirmed via burst pressure testing and tape strength analysis pre- and post-ethylene oxide sterilization, demonstrating minimal negative effects from the sterilization process.
Technological Characteristics
Convective warming blanket; forced air heating principle. Materials and design identical to predicate. Complies with ASTM F 2196-02 for temperature management. Sterilization via ethylene oxide.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing surgical procedures to prevent hypothermia and reduce cold discomfort during and after surgery.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A thermal regulating system is an external system consisting of a device that is placed in contact with the patient and a temperature controller for the device. The system is used to regulate patient temperature.

### Requlatory Submission Summary 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Page 2 of 2
# SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE TESTING:
#### Maximum Temperature delivered to the patient: .
The Sterile Cardiac Blanket was tested in accordance to the ASTM F 2196-02 Standard Specification for Circulating Liquid and Forced Air Patient Temperature Management Devices. This testing verified that the Sterile Cardiac Blanket maintained a maximum contact surface temperature of not exceeding 48.0℃ and an average contact surface temperature of not exceeding 46.0°C in normal condition.
#### Burst Pressure-Pre/post sterilization: .
The Burst Pressure of the Sterile Cardiac Blanket was tested in the same manner as the currently marketed non-sterile Convective Warming Blankets were inflated until bursting, and the burst pressure was measured. The Sterile Cardiac Blanket met the same robustness requirements, as do the predicate blankets.
#### . Tape Strength-Pre and Post Sterilization:
The tensile strength of the tape bond was measured pre and post sterilization, and after 3 levels of ethylene oxide exposure. While 3 levels of ethylene oxide dosage would represent a worstcase scenario. Test results indicate that sterilization have minimal negative effects on the tape adhesive.
### CONCLUSION:
The Sterile Cardiac Blanket performs as intended according to its performance specifications. The Sterile Cardiac Blanket is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (that includes non-sterile blankets). The Sterile Cardiac Blanket is substantially equivalent to the non-sterile blanket with respect to the intended use as a component of the Snuggle Warm® 4000 Convective Warming System
