The 3M Bair Paws system is revolutionizing forced-air warming by providing clinicians options for comfort and clinical warming throughout the perioperative process in one convenient gown. When connected to a Bair Paws warming unit, the Bair Paws gown provides clinical prewarming or comfort warming as patients await surgery. In the O.R. the same gown offers clinical warming for select surgical procedures when connected to a 3M Bair Hugger warming unit. The gown continues to warm in PACU, with both comfort and clinical capabilities.
