Technical Bulletin September 2009 – 02
Subject : important product feature confirmation after test in Germany
All of the warming devices manufactured by GVP Elettronica
are based on the proprietary GVPITECH technology, which is
the outcome of more than 10 years of dedicated research and
development. Periodically we get customers recognitions
about the ease of use and the tangible advantages we bring
to day-b y-d ay life in hospitals and rescue centres.
Recently we were officially invited to run a test in Germany, at
the Klinikum Frankfurt (Oder):thisbighospital (853 beds)
needs to find patient warming systems to be used in any department, includingCT scanning. The challenge was to verify the true radiolucency of TRM MED P, which they identified as the best version within our portfolio according to their specific needs.
Previous tests with competitors' devices (electric blankets/mattresses) were already made, and the outcome was tangibly not satisfactory (too many artifacts due to internal construction not really radiolucent). Because their CT equipment provides a very detailed diagnostic report, they require a true radiolucent device. They are not interested in forced air systems, because the mattresses, the hot air generator and the related hose are too cumbersome. The test was run on Thur. 17 , 2009 ; the CT equipment was a Siemens Sensation 64, able to provide up to 64 slices per rotation with previously unknown sharpness and diagnostic detail.
Patient Warming in CT Scanner
This is the outcome of the scan test; TRM MED P was put on top of the CT
movable table ; in some points the mattress was also a little bit overlapped.

The patient is positioned inside the table edges ; by looking at the scan image, that area is definitely “clean” and there is no trace of the presence of TRM MED P.
Based on the information provided by the Klinik, it really seems that just our device is truly radiolucent – competitors' devices were not able to perform the same.
This successful test is a further confirmation of the high quality of our warming devices. Because TRM MED P and DM WARM 12 share the same technological platform, they both perform the same and so are both effectively radiolucent.
Of course there is no difference when using a different brand of CT equipment: our performances are always the same and you can use the image and show it to your customers whatever CT equipment they have
