Overview
1 Introduction
Overview
This chapter provides an introduction to the WarmTouch™ Model WT-5300A
patient warming system.
Intended Use
The WarmTouch™ Model WT-5300A patient warming system (warming unit
and blanket) is intended for prevention and treatment of hypothermia, for
example, with the surgical patient, the patient in the pre-operative holding
area, the pregnant woman who shivers during epidural anesthesia due to
hypothermia, or any patient who is uncomfortable anywhere in the cold
critical care environment.
Manual Availability
The most recent revision of this manual is available on the Internet at:
http://www.nellcor.com/serv/manuals.aspx
Background Information
There are numerous ways of warming your patient, from cotton blankets to
water mattresses. Research has shown that low temperatures surrounding the
patient are a major factor contributing to hypothermia.1, 2 The warming
system covers the patient with warm air and actively transfers heat across the
skin. The result is to achieve normothermia.

Intra-abdominal Surgery.” Annals of Surgery 173:230-233, 1971.
Service Manual 13
Introduction
In creating this warm customized pocket of air around the hypothermic

patient, it is important to note that stagnant air, even if it is warm, does not
work as an effective heat transfer medium. Stagnant air acts as an insulator,
preventing the boundary layer of molecules next to the skin surface from
transferring heat.
Forced air warming causes warmed air molecules to flow over cooler skin
surface. It is this active flow of warmed molecules that acts as a heat transfer
medium. With the warming system, air is warmed and delivered into a
lightweight blanket (CareQuilt or CareDrape blanket) that rests over or under
the patient. The CareQuilt and CareDrape blankets have many small
perforations on the underside that allow air to exit the blanket and surround
the patient.
Safety Features
The warming system is designed to give healthcare professionals more control
over the patient’s core body temperature. There are several safety features of
the warming system which make it safe and appropriate for such use.
Customized Warming Therapy

Clinicians select temperature range setting at the onset of warming therapy
to help ensure the appropriate setting is selected for every patient.
Automatic Temperature Stepdown

The warming system provides a 45-minute temperature stepdown feature.
When in Boost mode, blower temperature will automatically drop to the High
temperature setting after each 45 minutes of use. The temperature may be
reset to Boost Mode at any time by selecting the Boost temperature setting
on the control panel to start another 45-minute cycle.
Automatic Over Temperature Shutdown

The automatic temperature controller and two back-up systems help to
ensure temperature will not reach excessive levels. If necessary, the control
system automatically turns off the heater element when the blower outlet
temperature rises to between 47º C and 50º C, illuminates the warning light,
14 Service Manual
Safety Features
and sounds an audible alarm. The warming system heater will start producing
heat when the warming system temperature drops to between approximately
34º C and 37º C. A yellow warning light illuminates whenever the control
system identifies an over-temperature condition.
Alarms
The WarmTouch control circuit manages and monitors operation of the
patient warming system. Should the control circuit encounter a failure
condition, it reports failures using both visual and audible alarms. The visual
alarm is a yellow warning indicator on the control panel that lights at power
on, upon power restoration following power failure, and whenever the
control system identifies an alarm condition. The audible alarm sounds
intermittently or continuously, depending on the alarm condition. In either
case, investigate immediately.
The WarmTouch control circuit recognizes two failure conditions.
1. Power On/Power Fail Alarm — This condition causes an intermittent

audible alarm and continuous visual alarm. It appears at power on and
after power failure, indicating the operator must select the desired
temperature. Upon selection of a temperature key, the system cancels the
alarm and the blower operates at the desired temperature.
2. Over-temperature Alarm — This condition causes a continuous audible
alarm and a flashing visual alarm. It appears when reaching the
temperature safety limit, and the control system turns off the heater. Once
the system air temperature returns to a safe operating temperature of
between 34ºC and 37ºC, the heater will turn back on.
If the control system determines the heater again exceeds the safety limit,
the warming system alarms once more. Take the warming system out of
service for repair by a qualified service technician.
If a power failure occurs while the warming system is in the over-
temperature fault condition, and the warming system is still in the over-
temperature fault condition when power is restored, both continuous
audible and visual alarms will activate. In this instance, the over-
temperature fault cannot be cleared. Take the warming system out of
service for repair by a qualified service technician.
Note:
The Power Fail/Start Alarm is only found on WT-5300A warming units containing a
Control PCBA with part number GR100307.

1 Performance Verification
Overview
This chapter provides performance verification procedures to be used when
servicing the WarmTouch™ Model WT-5300A patient warming system.
Power Fail / Start Alarm Check

This procedure ensures the Power Fail / Start Alarm functions correctly and
can be canceled properly. Perform this procedure before returning the
warming system into service.
Note:
The Power Fail/Start Alarm is only found on WT-5300A warming units containing a
PCBA with part number GR100307. WT-5300A warming units with earlier versions
of the Control PCBA (referred to as the Universal PCBA in earlier versions of this
manual) do not have this alarm, and do not need this test.
At power up, both audible and visual alarms activate, regardless of the reason for
power loss. Selecting any blower temperature cancels both types of alarms.
No equipment is required for this check.
To check the Power Fail / Start Alarm:

1. Plug in the warming system.
2. Turn on the warming system using the power switch. The audible alarm should
sound intermittently, and the warning light should be on steady. The Low
