Hypothermia Is Treated In Cases Of Hemorrhage, Burns, And Exposure And Immersion:
- Hemorrhage results in a rapid decrease in the body’s ability to ensure hemostasis which can result in hypothermia, shock, and death.
- Burns rob the body of its ability to retain fluids, regulate temperature, and result in 450,000 injuries requiring medical attention annually.
- Exposure and immersion result in over 1,300 patient deaths each year.
Why Reflexcell™? Because One Layer Simply Won’t Do.
Standard EMS blankets have one layer and are not designed to retain heat. They only slow heat loss and provide minimal thermal retention. Multiple blankets are often required to treat one patient. Blizzard Reflexcell™ technology allows “one wrap” for total warmth and delivers the most effective thermal retention on the market. At the same weight and volume, Reflexcell™ is 400% warmer than synthetic material blankets and 150% warmer than down-insulated garments and bags.
