High Performance at a Compact and Lightweight Form Factor and Significantly Lower Per Use Price!
The Warrior lite has been designed to support the needs of space- and weight-restricted first responders, rescue teams, and critical care transport teams, providing a lightweight and compact solution while delivering uncompromising performance. Among all battery-operated solutions, the Warrior lite’s performance is second only to the Warrior and Warrior EXTREME models. It not only delivers high performance levels but also does so at a significantly lower cost of ownership compared to all modern battery-operated warmers; making it a true win-win solution.
The Warrior lite:
- Warms cold-stored blood or blood components up to 180 ml/minute (Extra Power battery) vs. 100-150ml/minute offered by competitive options
- Warms up to 3 liters (Extra Power battery) of cold-stored blood or blood components with a single charge (vs. 1-2 liters)
- Uniquely validated to handle rapid intermittent bolus flows (more below)
- Is 50-70% more economical on a per-use basis
The Warrior lite is a 3-part system composed of a controller (Base Unit), battery, and consumable single-patient warmer (i.e., Compact Disposable Unit (CDU). Several accessories are offered to optimize configuration of operating environments, such as a mount accessory and extension cable. Assembly is simple and fail-safe and takes seconds to accomplish. Blood or fluids will be warmed almost from the first drop, even at high resuscitation rates. The LED display is designed to support night-vision goggles. The consumable’s fluid path is aluminum-free, thus eliminating toxicity concerns associated with aluminum. Instead, the consumable uses patented medical-grade stainless steel warming technology. The efficiency of our technology ensures immediate warming. The system measures fluid temperatures a few hundred times per second and automatically adjusts the heating to ensure 38°C (±2°C) output. Thus, the Warrior lite handles rapid bolus flows generated by push-pull, hand pump, syringe, or other flow-inducing devices such as LifeFlow™, which are common in trauma and medical emergency settings, exceptionally well. The technology has been perfected over >100,000 utilizations.
