Re: IV fluid warmers

["Jurry Van Ark" <jurry@ridgecrest.ca.us>]

I am with a ground service serving about 2700 square miles of incorporated
and remote desert area as well as special events (300-400/year). We do not
have overly aggressive winters with the exception of responses into the
mountains and winter nights that get below freezing.

For a three month period, we keep an old crock pot with two to three IV bags
kept in the warm water and we grab them on the way out the door. A shore
line keeps a space warmer running in the units on call and the fluids there
are usually about 70 degrees F in the units themselves. A simple solution
without over-engineering the problem.
