CCAAUUTTIIOONN
• Avoid the use of materials of good thermal conductivity, such as water, gel, or similar substances, with the AAllttrriixx system
not powered on. This can decrease the temperature of the body of a patient.
• Do not apply thermal transfer devices to patients with ischemic limbs. This may result in harm to the patient.
• Do not use this product if the patient has a transdermal medication (patch) as this can result in increased drug delivery.
• Do not use three or more adult Mul-T-Blanket products at the same time to avoid the risk of water overflow when you
power off the controller.
• Always pre-fill the thermal transfer devices with sterile distilled water before you apply it to the patients. This is to reduce
the risk of pressure ulcers.
• Always clamp the hoses when disconnecting the thermal transfer devices.
